Understanding where patterns begin

Emily is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist working with individuals, couples, and families across California. She holds a Bachelor's degree from UCLA and dual Master's degrees in Marriage and Family Therapy and Counseling from Chapman University.

Emily's therapeutic approach is grounded in warmth, curiosity and compassion. She creates a supportive space for clients to explore difficult emotions and experiences. She draws from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) along with attachment and trauma informed approaches to help clients understand how past experiences may be showing up in their lives today. She also utilizes inner child work to help clients heal past wounds and develop new strategies for change.

Emily has experience working with clients navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and trauma and PTSD, as well as relationship issues such as broken trust, recurring conflict, and communication challenges. She also helps clients explore family dynamics and long standing patterns that may be keeping them stuck. Outside of sessions, Emily enjoys traveling and spending time with her family and friends.
