Emily Ferrando

" Hello! Im Emily. I specialize in supporting children, teens, and adults who are navigating various impacts of trauma. Much of my work has been centered on addressing trauma occurring within the context of relationships. Therefore, I see the therapeutic relationship as the most important aspect of therapy, and show up in a compassionate and authentic way that allows for development of a trusting relationship. As our relationship strengthens we may explore the strategies you have used to survive and cope during difficult life experiences, while also acknowledging how these strategies may no longer be serving you. ", I believe that therapy participants are experts in their own lives, and I view my role as partnering with and supporting those I am working with to define what healing means and looks like for them. I am relaxed and flexible as I understand that each individual is coming into therapy with unique needs. , " I value compassion, creativity, humor, learning, diversity, and openness and work to consistently incorporate these values into my work. Therapy participants can expect a welcoming environment that holds space for empathic exploration of all aspects of their identity. If this approach feels like a fit for you please dont hesitate to reach out. "
