Getting to know Emily Riveles

It can be exhausting to keep up high standards, including your own and others, while constantly pushing, overextending, and feeling like it’s never quite enough. These behaviors are often connected to earlier relationships, such as family dynamics that can shape how we interact with others later in life. Therapy is a space to help you explore how past relationships shape your present, empowering you to respond to stress in ways that honor your needs. I'm an LCSW with 8+ years of experience working with members of the queer community, neurodiverse individuals, and those managing chronic mental health and medical conditions. I’ve spent my career supporting individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, and complex family dynamics. I work best with young professionals who are navigating workplace stress, burnout, and perfectionism. I draw on relational, humanistic, and psychodynamic therapy frameworks combined with cognitive behavioral therapy to help you explore your thoughts and feelings, and how they match your responses (or don't). This framework allows you to discuss your past and current experiences, while exploring new perspectives and changing patterns that don't serve you. We'll work together to identify goals that will help you take ownership over your life and build the reality you want to see. Whether it's setting boundaries with others, letting go of perfectionism, or beginning a challenging career endeavor- I’m here to listen and support you with warmth, curiosity, silliness, and honesty.
