Come as you areโ€”messy, tired, radical, questioning. Youโ€™re welcome here ๐Ÿ’–

Hi, Iโ€™m Emily! I offer virtual therapy thatโ€™s LGBTQIA+, kink, and non-monogamy affirmingโ€”always sex-positive and judgment-free. Whether you're navigating big life changes, unlearning old patterns, or just trying to survive late-stage capitalism, Iโ€™m here to help. You donโ€™t have to do it alone.

About

Direct, honest, and always in your corner

I provide virtual individual therapy for adults (18+) in Massachusetts, with a focus on supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals, non-monogamy, chronic illness, sex work, and kink. My approach is rooted in social justice, person-centered care, and the belief that you are the expert on your own life. Therapy with me is not about "fixing" youโ€”because youโ€™re not broken. Itโ€™s about exploring, unlearning, healing, and finding what works for you in a world that is often too much. I have big opinions but bigger respect for your autonomy and I will always support you, even if we have different taste in books (although we may discuss problematic tropes). โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ‹†โ‹…๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€โšง๏ธโ‹…โ‹† โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐–๐‡๐€๐“ ๐“๐‡๐„๐‘๐€๐๐˜ ๐‹๐Ž๐Ž๐Š๐’ ๐‹๐ˆ๐Š๐„ I draw from a mix of therapeutic approaches, depending on what works best for you: ๐ŸŒฑ ๐‡๐ฎ๐ฆ๐š๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐œ ๐“๐ก๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ฉ๐ฒ โ€“ You are not a collection of symptoms. This approach centers self-acceptance, growth, and unconditional positive regard. ๐Ÿง  ๐„๐ฑ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐š๐ฅ ๐“๐ก๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ฉ๐ฒ โ€“ Life is weird, confusing, and sometimes absurd. Weโ€™ll explore the big questionsโ€”meaning, purpose, freedomโ€”without getting lost in existential dread (hopefully). ๐ŸŒ ๐„๐œ๐จ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ฉ๐ฒ โ€“ Your well-being is connected to the world around you. Whether that means grounding in nature or just acknowledging that capitalism makes it hard to feel human, weโ€™ll work with that. ๐ŸŒˆ ๐…๐ž๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ ๐“๐ก๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ฉ๐ฒ โ€“ Therapy should be strength-based, egalitarian, and politically informed. If the personal is political, so is healing. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ‹†โ‹…โ™ฟโ‹…โ‹† โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐…๐‹๐„๐—๐ˆ๐๐‹๐„ ๐’๐‚๐‡๐„๐ƒ๐”๐‹๐ˆ๐๐† I know that chronic illness, disability, mental illness, and the diabolical vibes of the world right now can make scheduling (and life in general) unpredictable. Thatโ€™s why I keep therapy as accessible and low-stress as possible. I offer flexible scheduling and no pressure for a recurring appointment day/timeโ€”because some days are harder than others. I also understand last-minute cancellations (I sometimes need to cancel too when my symptoms flare up) and wonโ€™t penalize you for needing to reschedule. All appointments are virtual (video or phone). I'll be there when talking is helpful and will support from afar when it isn't. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ‹†โ‹…๐Ÿ‰โ‹…โ‹† โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐€ ๐๐ˆ๐“ ๐€๐๐Ž๐”๐“ ๐Œ๐˜ ๐„๐ƒ๐”๐‚๐€๐“๐ˆ๐Ž๐ Iโ€™m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts, with a masterโ€™s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lesley University.

I do not request any explanation or financial documentsโ€”you know what cost is realistic and accessible for you. I do not want money to be a barrier to therapy and I am always happy to work together to figure out how we make this financially feasible. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ‹†โ‹…๐Ÿ’—โ‹…โ‹† โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐…๐ˆ๐๐€๐๐‚๐ˆ๐€๐‹ ๐€๐’๐’๐ˆ๐’๐“๐€๐๐‚๐„ ๐…๐Ž๐‘ ๐’๐„๐— ๐–๐Ž๐‘๐Š๐„๐‘๐’ Iโ€™m proud to be a provider with Pineapple Support, offering reduced or no-cost therapy to individuals currently working in the adult industry.
