Emily McGuinness, LCSW.
I specialize in working with teens and adults, who might be feeling overwhelmed with life transitions and changes. As your therapist, my goal is to support you in utilizing your strengths and identifying coping skills to effectively manage the stress in your life. I provide a safe space for us to work together on helping you build confidence and to move past this feeling of being "stuck".
How I can help
I have clinical experience working with children, teens, adults, and seniors, as well as veterans. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and warm. In my practice, I utilize an eclectic approach, which includes CBT, mindfulness, and solutions-focused, based on your personalized needs.
I believe that a positive therapeutic relationship is essential for your success in therapy, which is why I offer a free consultation. Let's chat and see if we're a good fit to work together!
