Emily Majkrzak, LSW, PEL

My clients describe me as:

Light-hearted, caring and open. I know how difficult therapy can be. I hope to create a warm and welcoming space.

Something to know about my approach is:

When you or your child work with me, I use a creative approach so that therapy can be fun and productive! For example, is your interest in video games, music, art? We can use that in therapy!

Together, we will:

Work towards your values and what you want to get out of therapy. Some people come to therapy to talk about every day stress. Others need a space to grieve or to work through life experiences. I am here for what YOU need.

I specialize in working with people who:

Adolescents and those who belong to the LGBTQIA+ community. I also work full time as a therapist within a therapeutic day school. I am well-versed in school anxiety/school refusal issues.

I became a therapist because:

I wanted to help people even if it may be a minuscule amount.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I use your interests to make therapy fun! I understand that sitting down and talking to someone is not the easiest thing to do.

More about me and my practice:

I did not have the best experience with therapists as a child/teen. Ironically, I often hated attending sessions and did not want to engage in therapy. I understand what that feels like, so I hope to create better experiences for others.
