About Emily Straw

It’s nice to meet you! I’m Emily. I focus on helping you get back to the best version of yourself. I became a counselor because of the ways counseling has helped me get through some really difficult times in my life. I specialize in working with trauma, addiction, and religious trauma. When working with me, you might be surprised to find us laughing in a session, quoting our favorite movies or songs, or reminiscing about the ups and downs of being brought up in the church. I believe you have everything inside of you that you need to get through this, and I can’t wait to help you find it.
