Hi, I'm Emma!
I am a licensed master social worker working as a psychotherapist in Austin, Texas. I am currently under clinical supervision with Vanessa Flores, LCSW-S. I graduated from Baylor University with a Masters in Social Work. I currently hold my LMSW licensure.
How I Help
My style is calm and non-judgemental. I utilize a solution focused approach while holding space for clients to process in their own way. I also use CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) to empower clients to take better control of their thoughts and create healthy coping strategies.
Through incorporating DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) in sessions, I am able to help clients challenge negative thinking patterns while regulating emotions to feel more level. Sometimes, all we need is someone to listen, this creates space for solution- focused therapy and allows clients to see past the current crisis.
I hope that clients feel safe and welcome during our sessions. I believe being active is great medicine, I love a good walk and talk session. I hope to empower each client I see with the strengths they possess. I hope everyone feels safe and heard when they enter the door.

More About Me
Outside of the office, I am a big foodie - I love trying out new Austin spots with my husband. We love traveling as often as we can. I enjoy going for walks, reading, shopping, and running. I love to spend time with my friends and family. I have a small (large) addiction to buying plants.
