A Message From Emily:

There are moments in life that change us deeply. Experiences that leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in survival mode, or carrying pain that never fully settled. Reaching out for support during those times can feel vulnerable, but it can also be the beginning of meaningful healing and lasting change.

For the past 24 years, I have worked as a therapist, with the last 16 years focused specifically on trauma work. Over that time, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals and couples through some of life’s most painful and emotionally overwhelming experiences. My work is grounded, compassionate, deeply attuned, and informed by extensive specialized training in trauma, attachment, and nervous system healing.

EMDR therapy has been a central part of my work for over 16 years, and I have seen firsthand how powerful it can be in helping people process and move through experiences that continue to impact emotions, relationships, and nervous systems long after the event itself. I integrate EMDR with somatic and attachment based approaches, helping clients gently process not only what happened to them, but how those experiences continue to live in the body.

Alongside trauma work, I am also EFT Certified and have completed extensive training in Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples and relationships. I love helping couples move beyond painful cycles of conflict, disconnection, and hurt by uncovering the deeper emotions and attachment needs underneath those patterns. My goal is to help partners feel emotionally safe, understood, and more deeply connected to one another.

As a licensed yoga teacher and Somatic Attachment Therapist, I bring a holistic understanding of healing into the therapy space. Paying close attention to the subtle cues of the body and nervous system allows the work to unfold in a way that feels supportive rather than rushed.

I offer 75 minute sessions because I believe meaningful healing deserves space and care. Longer sessions allow time to settle in, process more deeply, and ensure clients feel grounded and supported before ending each appointment, especially when working with trauma and emotionally intensive experiences.

My work focuses on supporting adults and couples navigating trauma, PTSD, sexual trauma, attachment wounds, anxiety, grief, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

Life has both moments of beauty and times of deep anguish where we need help to navigate our way through. It would be an honour to come alongside you and support you in moving through the difficulties you are facing with greater understanding, healing, and connection.
