More about Emily
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wisconsin and Arizona using my skills to provide Psychotherapy since 2017. I have supported patients with their concerns including anxiety, stress, relationship issues, depression, grief, loss, and healing from traumas. I specialized in trauma-related healing from domestic violence, initiate partner violence, and abusive, toxic relationships. I have had experience with supporting people who face financial and employment stressors and have a certification as a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor to process work and disability-related concerns; including those who experience traumatic injuries and coping with those as they return to work. I provide support to expats and those living in alternative lifestyles, supporting those in and through transitions and in nomadic lifestyles.
My approach is through a trauma-informed lens that promotes healing through mind, body, and spirit. I utilize techniques from Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help make progress towards your goals. I am equipped to provide Christian-based therapy to prioritize biblical principles and spiritual strategies.
I look forward to the opportunity to support you in making progress towards your goals and will always be your encouragement as you face difficulties towards the progress you want. I value a trusting relationship and ensure a safe environment where you are able to be vulnerable to experience emotions and healing. I see each person's heart as valuable and to respect the journey and needs you have to support you the best I can.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Overall rating:
Helps me think through things in a different way and process my emotions.
She really does care about helping
Emily is great! Was very supportive letting me guide the conversations. She asked questions that really changed my perspective on things I had been doing for years, but always with encouragement and I never felt judged. I always looked forward to talking with her.
Emily is very knowledgeable and great at what she does. She knows how to put what I'm trying to communicate about my thoughts and feelings into clear words. She provides me with helpful, meaningful resources and exercises/activities and equips me with tools that help me greatly. I would highly recommend Emily, and appreciate working with her!
I think she is a great therapist
Emily is wonderful. She is patient, kind, and willing to sit with me when I was at my worse. She is a compassionate therapist and person all around.
Emily is very thorough and thoughtful. She has been a vital part of my personal work and growth.
She is absolutely wonderful, she never judges me, my thoughts, or my actions. She gives me lots of references that I can look back too when I’m going through a hard time. She is very easy to talk to, and checks up on me on a regular basis. She doesn’t force me to talk about anything, and tells me that I can tell her as little or as much as I feel comfortable with.
Emily is very personable and easy to talk to. She is very knowledgable and provides me with a variety of tools to work with.
Emily is everything I could have hoped for in a counselor. She is very perceptive and understanding. I consider myself very lucky to have been matched with her.
