Hi! I’m Emily. I’m really glad you’re here, no matter how you stumbled across this piece of the Internet! If you’re here, you’re probably curious about the face behind the page. Here are some things about the me:

I love tea. Caffeine and I don’t get along so well, so most times you’ll find me sipping something low-caf or no-caf.

Laughing lights me up! I have a natural ability to find the amusement.

I’m a mom of 2, and our family homeschools our littles.

I’m a Reiki Master practitioner. I love introducing people to energy work!

Connecting with my clients and others through writing is important to me.

I use my intuition in all of the work that I do. It’s part of me, and it helps me dig into what my clients are experiencing.

I have backgrounds in research and as a perinatal mental health therapist, and while intuitive work and Reiki are separate from these, all of my education and work history has come together to form how I work, how I see things, how I approach situations, and how I work with clients.

Have questions? Just ask! I’m excited to connect.
