A woman with dark brown hair, wearing a white blouse, blue jeans, and beige high heel sandals, stands outdoors next to a large tree with textured bark. She has crossed arms and is smiling slightly, with a wooden fence, green grass, and leafy plants in the background, and string lights hanging from the tree.

Hi, I’m Emily.

I believe healing happens in relationships — with ourselves, our communities, and the world around us. Humans have immense, innate capacity for growth, change, and resilience in the face of challenge when we feel seen, heard, and aligned with our values and connected with people, plants, and place.

My style is supportive, compassionate, collaborative, and deeply rooted in the idea that you deserve a space where you can show up exactly as you are — no performance required. I aim to be a steady, grounded presence in the therapy room. Often my role is to slow us down and make space for the feelings and experiences we want to rush through. I will also gently challenge you while honoring that you are the expert of your own experience.

In our work together, we get moving. I offer more than just a couch; we might meet in the office, but we also have the option for outdoor walk-and-talk sessions, nature-based experiences, and therapeutic yoga.

We’ll integrate modalities like Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), narrative therapy, somatic practices, and trauma-informed yoga to help you find your footing and build a sense of resilience that feels real and sustainable.

This isn’t your typical talk therapy.

My background

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT), and certified nature-informed therapist, which means I love finding ways to weave the natural world into the healing process.

Outside the office, I am often outdoors — playing in my garden, running on Wasatch trails, or wandering the neighborhood with my dog. I also love good craft coffee, thriller novels, and low-key community hangs.

I’d love to support you in finding steadier ground.

I see clients in person in Salt Lake City and online throughout Utah and Idaho. I offer free 15-minute consultations to see if we’re a good fit.
