Aligned Counseling and Supervision

Healing for anxious hearts, zooming brains, & the body just trying to hold it all together


Specialized Counseling Services:

01

Your achievements don’t feel satisfying, you can't turn off your work brain, and “good enough” feels out of reach. I specialize in helping high-achieving professionals break free from perfectionism and burnout using neuroscience-based therapy that creates lasting change so that you can finally enjoy the success you've worked so hard to build.

02


Therapy for recently divorced moms rebuilding their identity. Figure out who you are now, deepen your relationship with your kids, and make choices that feel right for your family, not what everyone else says you “should” do.

Welcome!

i’m Emily, and you’ve found aligned counseling and Supervision.

I’m a licensed therapist with a PhD in counseling from UNC Charlotte, a Level II AEDP therapist, and an approved clinical supervisor.

I’ve spent my career working with anxious, ambitious people who are tired of trying so hard and still feeling like it’s not enough.

I see clients by secure telehealth across four states, and I keep my caseload small on purpose so the people I work with get my full attention.

you—with your zoomy brain, heavy heart, & tired soul—deserve peace.
