Hey, there. I’m Emily. For the last decade-plus, I’ve been highly-focused on disrupting unhealthy patterns in myself and my relationships that were born from inherited relational trauma and social/cultural blind spots. My need to establish new norms that reflect emotional health, clear boundaries, and a consistent pursuit of living in alignment — a.k.a. actively living my values — has made this hard work both essential and deeply worthwhile.

I’m also an able-bodied, educated, white woman from New England, and I possess a fuck ton of privilege as a result. I’m actively learning about how to become a less harmful white person, and have been humbled to learn about and confront the damage whiteness causes.

I view emotional healing work through a lens of collective healing, which means that I believe that if we do the work to heal ourselves internally and in our relationships through communication, boundaries, and aligned living, that we can then effect real social change — the kind that tells the truth even when it’s hard, and supports, protects, and values all people.

This is the work I now bring to you.

My pragmatic, heart-centered work is designed to support the ever-opening global conversation about the power of telling the truth — and doing something both with and about that truth. I support people in radically accepting themselves and their lives, improving their family’s emotional health trajectories, and positively influencing their communities through congruent, honest, out-loud living.

Major transformation does not need to move at a glacial pace; we have the power to create dramatic and enduring change in ourselves and in our world now.

The work I do is designed to support you in transforming yourself from a person who thinks about living life with deep personal integrity into a person who actually lives life that way.

I’m a certified transformation coach, trained group facilitator, and licensed mental health counselor (LMHC). I’m also a published writer, and have had many pieces published and translated.

Three things I’m proud of:

  1. Doing the internal emotional work required to quit using booze and pills as numbing agents (aka, getting sober.)

  2. Giving birth at home to two of the all time greatest teachers and loves of my life.

  3. Working like hell to stay married to a dude I really love and who really loves me.

Let’s connect.
