After going back and forth between different options and not knowing if our child would open up to a specialist, I'm so glad we found Emora! Excited to see what the future holds for our daughter.

I am an encouraging, thoughtful and intentional therapist who uses several modalities for solution-focused results. I graduated from Webster University with a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling but continued to seek specialized skills in removing a person away from their trauma. My approach is warm and grounded in actuality of once being on the other side of mental health and overcoming obstacle after obstacle to achieve excellence in this field. My intention is to help create a judgment free zone for clients to express things they can’t in other spaces. I want to be your hero.

I am a compassionate and understanding therapist with a degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University. I believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you can show up as your true self without fear of judgment. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, relationship challenges, and major life changes. My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative. I see therapy as a partnership where we work together to better understand your experiences, identify patterns, and build healthier ways of coping. I am passionate about helping clients feel empowered, confident, and equipped with tools that support long-term emotional growth and resilience.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with a master's degree of social work from UCS earned in 2019. I have spent the last five years working with children and teens, as well as adults using an authentic and approachable method of therapy that combines research backed, evidenced based practices with creative methods to help clients feel like each session is uniquely tailored to them and not just a printout or ai generated activity. My approach is to make sure each client feels seen, heard, and understood, and walks away from sessions feeling empowered. My goal is to help client feel worthy of living their best life, and capable of making the choices to help them reach their goals.
