I became a therapist after experiencing trauma in my own life. I know how valuable therapy can be in helping you navigate difficult situations. My approach to treating OCD is one of compassion and understanding. I hope to make specialized OCD treatment more accessible. I have experience treating trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and substance use, which I believe makes me more sensitive to people with OCD; these conditions can occur together. The most gratifying part of my job is helping members rediscover joy.

My therapist listens to me and guides me through the ERP treatment. She doesn’t judge me, she instead helps reframe my thinking and help me better face my own fears while we go through ERP.

It went great. Emily always listens carefully and is quick to address new issues and helps to come up with creative exposures. We love our therapy sessions with Emily. She makes us feel better equipped to maintain my son's OCD.

Good experience

I can confidently say that working with Emily has been unlike any other therapy experience I’ve had. For the first time, I truly feel like I’m uncovering parts of myself and gaining insight in ways I never have with previous therapists. Her ability to create a safe, supportive space while challenging me to grow has been incredible. I’ve felt more connected, more reflective, and honestly like a new version of myself. What I’ve discovered in this process has been something I didn’t know was possible through therapy. I’m beyond grateful to have found her and the NOCD community.
