Emily is insightful, supportive, personable and really fits my personality and needs really well. I’ve been seeing her for three years and she’s helped me through a number of incredibly challenging life changes. I’m a much more confident and grounded person and have much better tools now than I did before working with her. I’ve had other therapists but they were not nearly as good of a fit, and I didn’t make as much progress. I’m really thankful that BetterHelp matched me with Emily.

Hi, I'm Emily and I am so glad that you took the biggest leap in the counseling process by recognizing that you need support and reaching out for help. While therapy can be a scary process, it also can be one of the most freeing and rewarding experiences of your life, giving you the ability to be the person you always dreamed of becoming.
My background in mental health counseling started at St. John Fisher College in Rochester, NY. In May 2011, I graduated with a Master of Science degree in Mental Health Counseling. Following graduation, I began working as a primary therapist in an outpatient mental health clinic. In 2014 I officially became a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of New York. While working in an outpatient setting, I worked with men, women and teenagers suffering from a variety of mental health illness including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. After a year of working there, I was asked to conduct a group for individuals suffering from co-occuring disorders. Since then, a great deal of my focus has been on treating individuals who suffer from both mental health and substance use disorders. In February 2015, I joined the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision (DOCCS) and accepted a position providing mental health and substance abuse treatment services to incarcerated individuals. After almost six years of working with this population, I have gained a great understanding of the role that trauma and abuse plays in a person’s life, specifically surrounding issues of abandonment, trust, guilt and shame, family dynamics and parenting.
My philosophy on therapy is pretty simple. Whether my patients are in society or behind bars, I always tell those I’m working with that as a therapist I'm not in the business of telling you what to do or how you should do it. It my belief that every human has the answers that they seek deep within themselves. My job is simply to give you a safe space to help you navigate and uncover the solutions to problems or answers to questions that you subconsciously already have the answers to. After all, nobody knows you better than you! Together, we will process the areas that you need support in as well identify strengths and appropriate coping skills to build up your ability to deal with life on life’s terms instead of resorting to old, negative coping skills that no longer serve a purpose in your life. While this can be an overwhelming process with feelings of extreme vulnerability, it is only during those times of feeling uncomfortable where true growth is able to take place. I am looking forward to joining you on your new journey of self-discovery!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Sometimes it's the simplest things that help. Moley helped me greatly
Emily has been AMAZING! I highly recommend. She listens and gives great advice. She’s very empathetic.
So wonderful
Emily is professional, friendly and helpful.
Nice and understanding. Flexible in her approach in helping me to get through and around things
For the last year, Emily has become an important part of my life. She offers a safe space to discuss my thoughts and concerns, while providing appropriate and meaningful suggestions to work through. We’ve established a relationship, so she understands my family and work dynamics making current conversations more efficient. She has been so helpful to me, that I openly talk about my work with her to friends. She is a life coach. I highly recommend her!
She's always asking the right questions that get my brain moving
Emily is wonderful and has great advice. She is the best.
Emily is incredible. She is warm, funny, knowledgeable, and kind. She’s very easy to open up to, and she has a knack for suggesting practical solutions that will help issues now while we get to the root of what’s causing them. I would recommend Emily to anyone.
I found my therapist!! For people with mental illness that sentence holds so much power.
I love Emily, I’ve been through several therapists before and no one has made the progress with me that Emily has in such a short time. She just understands and for the first time I don’t feel like “I’m too much”. I’ve learned a lot about myself and while it’s challenging I can’t wait to go further in life with Emily by my side.
I been to a therapist before, some were successful and others were failures. Thank god I was matched with Emily. She is very knowledgeable, personable and compassionately straight to the point. She’s very responsive with any questions or issues, and actually puts thought and care into her responses. It is very clear she is in love with her career and helping others. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for true help.
I've been with Emily for 4-5 months now and my growth has been so phenomenal. She's literally unlocked things I've stored up for years. I am handling stress and anxiety in my life with so much more ease now.
Very commodating around my split shift schedule. Jumps on and informs me if she can't get to my messages right away so I know I'm not being ignored, but down to business when she does get to them.
Emily is simply amazing. I was unsure about virtual counseling but she's made the entire process great. Emily is really easy to talk to, half the battle with therapy in general. She's also someone that understands a wide range of lifestyles, etc... so can give thoughtful responses in a way that makes me feel like she really understands where I'm at.
Emily is amazing, she’s one of the best therapists I’ve ever dealt with. I can’t see myself without her
I find Emily’s counseling sessions very helpful. She is punctual, supportive and very insightful. Definitely would recommend her to others.
Best listener ever
Emily was assigned to me exactly when I needed her. I’m grateful for her time and patience with me. The genuine concern and understanding which makes this process soo much easier
Emily understands me. She understand where I come from and she truly wants the best for me. She is very well spoken and says the truth even if it may hurt, which I appreciate her for.
Emily is an incredible counselor. Her ability to combine soul-searching with practical advice, along with her ability to present information in a way that is accessible and kind, makes her easily the best therapist I’ve ever worked with. I couldn’t recommend Emily more highly.
