Introduction

Emily Stern, LMHC, believes that therapy should be a sanctuary where you feel supported, understood, and encouraged. She specializes in helping adults navigate through grief, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and postpartum challenges with compassion and care. In every session, Emily creates a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your story, strengthen your coping skills, and reconnect with a sense of hope and purpose. Trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Grief Treatment, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emily tailors her approach to best support your goals. Whether it's using DBT to manage strong emotions and build distress tolerance, CBT to shift unhelpful thought patterns, or EMDR to process trauma and difficult memories, Emily is equipped to guide you through your healing journey. For new parents, she offers dedicated postpartum therapy, addressing postpartum anxiety, depression, and the identity shifts that accompany caring for a new baby. Emily is passionate about walking beside clients through both pain and growth. She understands the heaviness life can bring and the importance of finding steadier ground. Whether you are seeking DBT therapy for emotion regulation or grief therapy to feel less alone, Emily will meet you with warmth, encouragement, and a steadfast belief in your capacity to heal.
