Emily Homer is a dedicated resident in counseling with a deep belief that sharing one's true self in a safe, supportive environment can profoundly change lives. In her therapy practice, she strives to create such spaces for her clients as they set personal goals and pursue meaningful change. Emily recognizes the importance of her clients setting the pace for their sessions, respecting their boundaries on how and when they choose to discuss personal aspects of their lives, and actively encouraging collaboration in identifying steps toward their objectives. She understands that immense healing can occur from simply sharing one's experiences, as much as from the actions taken afterward. Emily views all coping mechanisms as courageous attempts to navigate life's challenges. Primarily, she conducts therapy from a person-centered and acceptance and commitment therapy approach, while also integrating elements of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and internal family systems (IFS). She finds fulfillment in working with clients facing issues related to anxiety, depression, self-esteem, body image concerns, eating disorders, and trauma. Her previous experience in a residential eating disorder setting has equipped her to support those grappling with body image issues, a variety of eating disorder behaviors, anxiety, depression, self-doubt, identity struggles, self-harm, dissociative identity disorder (DID), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Under the guidance of her supervisor, Meredith Luttrell, LPC, Emily is actively pursuing her licensure hours, committed to fostering growth and healing in her clients.
