Emma Busby
(She/Her/Hers)
Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Taking the first step towards help can be the hardest part! Take your time. When you are ready, we can walk side-by-side in your unique healing process.
Do you feel lost in why you feel the way you do? Perhaps you have a good understanding of the "why", but you can't quite figure out what to do about it! Our minds and our bodies share a deep connection. Through a combination of practices such as EMDR, mindfulness, somatic experiencing, and compassion-focused therapy, we can engage in processing in our brains and in our bodies for a more holistic path towards healing.
