Background and approach

Sessions tend to center on small, doable steps rather than long lectures. She has eight years of experience working in outpatient and community clinic settings. Her background includes a master's degree in counseling and a Bachelor of Arts in psychology.

Emily holds the Licensed Professional Counselor title in New Mexico as LPC and also lists LPCC credentials. In sessions she helps people sort priorities, practice coping skills, and rebuild self-esteem. Common topics include relationship concerns, family-of-origin issues, body image, fertility and pregnancy-related challenges, and trauma recovery.

She also supports those navigating non-monogamous relationships and grief. Emily offers multiple ways to stay connected, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. She aims to work collaboratively so each person finds an approach that fits their life and goals.

How Emily’s Approaches Work Online

Emily commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on noticing thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to help people manage intense feelings and improve relationships.

She also draws on solution-focused techniques that zero in on goals and immediate steps. These ideas help keep sessions practical and aim for changes clients can try between meetings. Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative - the therapist will work with the client to choose approaches that match needs, goals, and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill coaching and deeper conversations. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging provide short check-ins, brief coping support, or a way to exchange resources between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into everyday life.
