About Me
Hello! I'm Emily.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I enjoy providing individual counseling to adults and elders in my community. I have experience supporting clients facing life transitions, chronic illness, relationship and workplace conflict, cultural marginalization, and the impacts of culture on self-image. I have supported clients from all backgrounds that live with mood disorders, PTSD, and attachment disorders.
I have a Master of Social Work Degree from Tulane University and completed my BA in Psychology and Women’s Studies at Michigan State University. I have been a practicing Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2014, and have experience in mental health and health care since 2006. In 2008, I became certified in Disaster and Crisis Mental Health through Tulane University and have extensive experience working with and supporting those in helping professions (health care workers, first responders, educators).
My work experience has been primarily in the realms of community agencies and teaching hospitals. In my 15 years of experience, I have held clinical mental health roles in heart and lung transplant, palliative care, chronic and emergency psychiatric care, and primary care. I have also supported clients with case management and systems navigation support/skills building, with the goal of improved engagement in health care over time.
