Emily Lopez

Emily (she/her) is currently accepting new clients; inquire about working with her through our form.

Emily is a trauma-informed, client-centered, and anti-racist therapist who has been working with clients of all ages for over 5 years. She is currently working with teenagers and adults from a Narrative Therapy framework – every person’s life is a story or a book. In order to understand where you are now, it’s important to understand your backstory, identify themes, reframe past experiences, and help you to write the rest of your story in an empowering way.

It's important to Emily to help her clients in their personal goals and emphasizes that clients are the experts in their own lives and that her role is to walk alongside people in their journeys, while providing support and empathy utilizing a trauma-informed approach. As a queer Mexican-American cisgender female, Emily acknowledges her privilege and works to provide a safe space for LGBTQ+ folks, BIPOC folks, those in non-cis/het relationships, those in the kink community, and those with any level of neurodiversity.

Life is hard! It can be difficult to reach out for support when we live in a country that normalizes the grind, minimizing our own needs, fatphobia, non-cis/het judgments, among a myriad of stressors impacting those of us in the US. Emily is a member of the LGBTQ+ community, BLM, pro-choice, sex-positive, kink positive, and body positive. She loves Disney, true crime, musicals, metal, animals, video games, geeky stuff, reading, knitting, and tons of other things! If this sounds like a good fit, please reach out! It can be difficult to find a therapist that fits exactly with what you need, but reaching out is the hardest part - you got this!
