Getting to know Emily Pissocra

I am a LISW-S (Licensed Independent Social Worker) in Ohio with 10 years of experience working with diverse populations facing mental health diagnoses, trauma, and dual diagnoses. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from The Ohio State University College of Medicine. Throughout my career, I have specialized in supporting clients affected by trauma, both past and present, and I strive to be a healing agent for those in need. My approach I believe the therapy space is sacred and important. I work to create a safe, supportive environment tailored to your unique needs and goals. I am down-to-earth and approachable, valuing the importance of building strong rapport. I primarily use Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), person-centered, cognitive processing, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based, and psychodynamic interventions in my work. My focus I have worked with a wide range of clients, including youth in schools, youth involved in the juvenile justice system, teens in foster care, as well as adults and couples struggling with substance use and mental health concerns. I especially enjoy working with clients who feel stuck, are ready for change, or simply need a safe space to “land” amid life’s challenges. Much of my experience centers on trauma, family dysfunction, life transitions, depression, and anxiety. My communication style My communication is empathetic, curious, and open. I strive to be honest and real while remaining gentle and clear. I deeply value open communication and encourage clients to share any feedback they have. This collaborative approach helps clients maintain a strong sense of direction in their healing journey and ensures we work together toward your goals.
