Emily utilizes cognitive behavioral therapy with her clients with a person centered focus. She incorporates mindfulness into her therapy to allow others to experience fully all the things life has to offer. Being more engaged in the present moment can lead to a richer experience of the things that might otherwise pass us by while we are wrapped up in thoughts about the past or relentlessly thinking about what we are doing next. For example noticing the leaves dancing on a tree, a bird soaring in the wind, the smell of new blossom, the color of the sky or the smile on the face of someone as they pass by.
