About Emily

She/Her

As long as I can remember I’ve wanted to be in a helping profession. Whether it be people, animals or the environment, I’ve always been drawn to creating a more just world.

After working for almost 10 years in non-profit community organizations, I found myself longing for deeper, more meaningful connections with the folx and communities I served. After some deliberation I decided to get my Marriage, Couple and Family Therapy degree. I created Therapy Unbound because I believe that therapy should be meaningful to you and not bound by societal or academic attitudes about what is “right” or “best”. I believe in the healing power of nature, water, and of our own hearts and minds.

When I’m not being a therapist you can generally find me adventuring!

My home-bases are the Pacific Northwest and Lake Tahoe, but I spend significant time traveling in my camper van with my dog, Brody. (He may say hello in some of our virtual sessions!) Traveling and exploring is not only a passion of mine, it also allows me to serve folx all over the state of Oregon both virtually and in natural spaces near you. I feel privileged to be able to combine my passion for the outdoors with my passion for service and therapy.

In addition to adventuring outside, I like to get in touch with my creative side and adventure inward as well. My undergraduate degree is in Fine Art, and I have a deep love and respect for all things creative and passion-based. What’s your passion and how do you want to incorporate that into therapy?


My goal for Therapy Unbound is to facilitate healing outside the box. I believe that therapy can be beneficial for all folx, and I also know healing looks different for everyone. I draw on my past experiences both in my career and in my personal journey to co-create a rich and authentic therapeutic experience with my clients.

I utilize humor, and bring my full self to sessions, because I believe that authentic healing begins with an authentic therapist-client relationship.
