Hi there, I'm Emily! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I received my Master of Social Work Degree from Rutgers University in 2014. I have worked with clients from diverse racial, cultural, and socio-economic backgrounds in therapeutic relationships addressing issues including anxiety, depression, managing anger, and emotional deregulation. My approach I like to focus on whole person wellness with a specialty in Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My focus I work with clients ranging from adolescence to older adults. I assist clients in navigating life transitions and specialize in addressing anxiety, depression, stress, and ADHD. My communication style I strive to create a comfortable and laid-back atmosphere. As a Therapist, my goal is to meet you exactly where you are. My journey to mental healthcare I became a social worker because of my deep desire to help others. I’ve always cared for those around me and genuinely value being a source of support. My goal is to help people feel better and thrive. My goals for you I take a person-centered approach to goal setting, recognizing that this is your treatment journey. My role is to support and assist you in achieving your goals. My first session with you Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other.
