Hi, I'm Emily
Therapist, coach, and author helping women and kids reconnect with who they are, trust themselves, and bring their magic to everything they do.
Where It Started...
Most people want to be happy, but most of us aren’t actually doing the things that make us happy. We’ve next-stepped our way into these lives where we’re constantly trying to do it all—juggling work, family, and a never-ending to-do list—just trying to keep up.
At least, that was me.
I was working long hours in community mental health, running on stress and caffeine while navigating unexplained infertility. From the outside, I looked like I had it together. Inside, I was exhausted, anxious, and wondering if this was just how life was supposed to be.
And then everything fell apart, and I was forced to take a step back and make a change.
It wasn’t about a quick fix, forcing myself to “stay positive” or finding the perfect wellness trend or mindset hack. It was about learning how to listen to myself again.
To trust my gut. And to make choices that felt true to me—even when they didn’t make sense on paper.
What I Learned (and What I Teach)
After more than 17 years working in mental health and coaching, I’ve learned that the most powerful thing you can do is trust yourself.
When you stop trying to do it all and start focusing on what truly matters, everything shifts. You make decisions that feel right for you. You create space for peace, joy, and purpose to take root. And life starts to actually feel like yours again.
That shift changed everything for me.
It’s the foundation that helped me become a mom, start my own business, write two books, and create the life I live today.
Now, I help other women and kids do the same — reconnect with who they are and build lives that actually feel good.
My approach blends psychology, coaching, and real-life practicality. It’s equal parts science and soul —practical tools, mindset shifts, and a whole lot of compassion.
Because when you trust yourself, play to your strengths, and unlock your magic, you start doing life differently—with more peace, joy, and you!
When I’m Not Working…
You’ll find me walking with a friend, reading a fiction book, or cheering on my son at a swim meet or baseball, football, or basketball game.
I’m based on the west side of Cleveland, and I’m so grateful to do this work—helping people of all ages live life as their truest selves.
If you're ready to do life differently—with more peace, more joy, and more you...
