Services & Bio
Emma received her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Dubuque. She then earned her Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University. She became a temporary Licensed Mental Health Counselor (tLMHC) in October 2026.
Emma provides office-based and virtual counseling services out of our Cascade location. Emma gained clinical experience during her internship with RISE, working in a school-based setting to support students navigating a wide range of mental, emotional, and behavioral health concerns. She serves clients ages 5 and up, placing a primary focus on supporting children, adolescents, and teens as they navigate developmental stages and life adjustments. Her clinical areas of specialization include working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, oppositional defiant behavior (ODD), mood disorders, and disordered eating.
In her practice, Emma utilizes an integrative selection of evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), play therapy techniques, and tailored behavioral interventions to support the unique needs of each client. Recognizing that no two journeys are the same, she carefully adapts her therapeutic strategies to honor each individual's unique needs, strengths, and developmental stage, fostering emotional growth, behavioral support, and overall wellbeing. Emma’s approach to counseling is caring, patient, and deeply person-centered. She believes that clients can heal and grow in a safe, non-judgmental environment where they feel truly heard, valued, and empowered to express themselves freely. Emma partners with her clients to help them uncover their inherent resilience, build healthy coping mechanisms, and navigate life’s challenges with growing confidence.
Emma began her journey with RISE as an intern in August 2025, and transitioned into her current role as a therapist in October 2026.
