Getting to know Emily Peter

What should a new client know about working with you?

Life can feel overwhelming sometimes, especially when you’re trying to balance school, work, relationships, family expectations, and everything else life throws at you. You may feel anxious, stuck, burned out, or unsure of what direction to take next — and that’s okay. Therapy can be a space where you don’t have to have it all figured out. I work with young adults, college students, and professionals who are navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and feeling overwhelmed by day-to-day pressures. My approach is warm, supportive, and down-to-earth. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while building practical coping skills for everyday life.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My goal is to help you feel more confident, balanced, and connected to yourself while supporting you through the ups and downs along the way. Reaching out for support can be difficult, but you don’t have to navigate things alone. I’d be honored to support you in this process.
