“Emily believes that intensive, in-the-moment work is a powerful process that can lead to growth and change”

Lead Therapist

Emily has spent her career working intensively with youth and their families in homes, schools, and communities. She believes that intensive, in-the-moment work is a powerful process that can lead to growth and change. Emily enjoys using humor, nature, play, music and other creative activities in therapy. In addition, she accesses evidenced-based models including Integrated Family and Systems Treatment (I-FAST), Multi-systemic Therapy (MST), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing. While these models are valuable in treatment, the collaborative relationship that can be formed with families in their every day environment is invaluable.

Emily received her undergraduate degree in Music Therapy at Radford University and completed her degree with a six-month internship at the Psychiatric Research Institute at the University of Illinois at Chicago. She practiced music therapy in Zanesville, OH with children and adults in an inpatient psychiatric hospital and worked towards her master’s of arts with a focus in clinical counseling at The Ohio State University. During this time, Emily also worked as a music therapist in a hospice program, and it was through this experience that she learned the value of treating families in their homes.

Emily is a Board Certified Music Therapist and is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with a supervisor distinction in the state of Ohio.
