Hello!
My name is Emma. I am a Licensed Couple and Family Therapist in Maryland. I have been working with individuals, couples, and families since 2015 and truly love being a part of someone's journey to health and healing. I completed my B.S. in Psychology and Family Science as well as my M.S. in Couple and Family Therapy from the University of Maryland, College Park (Go Terps!). When I am not working, I enjoy reading, being in nature, baking, and spending time with my friends and family. I live with my family in the Silver Spring, MD area.
I specialize in working with individual adults and couples who are dealing with a variety of life-stressors and changes. Whether it is communication issues with a partner, past trauma, self-esteem, anxiety, grief, etc., my goal is to help my clients feel heard and understood. I believe we all have a story to tell, and with the security and support of therapy, we are able to tell our stories with confidence. This process of “telling” can happen through conventional speech or through art, physical movement, and emotional sharing. My hope is that all clients feel safe enough in the therapy room to share their stories with me, their family members, and most of all, with themselves.
I am of the belief and practice that change needs to be wanted and through self-discovery, empathy, and hope, I will help you come to a place where you want to make change for your family and yourself. Above all, I aim to provide a sense of safety, security, and comfort. A wise mentor once told me that comfort resides in the ritual of care and where there is care, nurturance, attention, and responsiveness, there is comfort. I want to help you to discover, adapt, and thrive with your new rituals of care.
