Emily Smith, Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

My clients describe me as:

Calm, warm, thoughtful, relatable, and compassionate. I meet and welcome you where you are each time you come in for therapy.

Something to know about my approach is:

I am driven by curiosity and work collaboratively with my clients to help foster positive change in their lives and relationships. I pay attention to how past experiences are retold and experienced in the present.

Together, we will:

create a safe, nurturing space for you to discover your values, explore patterns and family history, navigate challenges and distress, address conflicts and process emotional wounds, and learn to be with yourself (and/or your partner) in a new way.

I specialize in working with people who:

want to improve communication and connection in their relationship, and people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, are navigating experiences of grief and loss, or going through major life transitions.

I became a therapist because:

my own experiences with therapy helped me follow my desire to change careers and show up for others during the hard parts of life.
