I'm Emma Werner, and I'm here to help you develop the necessary coping skills to promote personal growth and live a full and authentic life.

Credentials and Expertise

I have a Master of Arts in Counseling, with a concentration in Trauma and Child and Family Therapy. I am intensively trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) for self-harming and suicidal teens, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety and depression, as well as basic Acceptance and Commitment Training. With my comprehensive background, I am equipped to provide you with the concrete skills you need to manage unhealthy coping patterns and be peacefully present in your life.

A Safe Space for Teens

I am passionate about creating a safe and inclusive environment for teenagers and young adults who are part of the LGBTQ+ community or exploring their sexuality. I understand the challenges of fitting into societal expectations and the impact of social media. Together, we will work to help you discover your authentic self, boosting your confidence and self-compassion.

Specialized Focus Areas

My passion extends to working with suicidal and self-harming teens, as well as individuals struggling with anxiety and perfectionistic tendencies. Through my experience with suicide hotlines and crisis text-lines, I have developed the skills to support you in tolerating distress, regulating emotions, and creating a healthy and fulfilling life. My counseling approach is rooted in dialectics, emphasizing both change and acceptance. I aim to guide you through lasting changes by equipping you with a toolbox of coping skills, so you can become the expert in managing your own emotions and difficult moments.

I am trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) which offers structured and short-term interventions designed to facilitate fast and transformative results for those who have experienced a trauma. This powerful approach enables clients to experience growth and find relief within a shorter timeframe.

Beyond the Therapy Room

Outside of counseling, I enjoy spending time with my two adorable cats, JJ and Ferguson. I find solace in going for walks while listening to podcasts, trying new restaurants with friends and family, attending concerts, cycling, baking with my partner, and indulging my curiosity with thought-provoking documentaries.
