Hi, I'm Emilee and I've been working as a child and family therapist for about 3 years now. I graduated with my Master's degree in 2022 and recently moved up to the Salem area. I'm currently based in the Salem-Keizer school district and have telehealth availability in the afternoons.

I believe that healing comes from acceptance, self-compassion, and personal exploration. I aim to help my clients find balance between empowerment and accountability. Shame often impedes progress and keeps us stuck. As such, I take a positive, person-centered approach to highlight strengths as well as challenges. I incorporate play, coping skills, distress tolerance strategies, and existentialism in my practice. I love to explore the things that make life meaningful. While I have experience with a range of presenting issues, I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ populations, manifestations of trauma, attachment issues, and family stress.

Whether you're going through issues with trauma, anger, relationships, anxiety, or just navigating the stress of the world, it would be my pleasure to walk by your side and be with you through your healing journey.
