Her warm and empathetic approach helps clients confront their difficulties, fostering resilience and empowering them to reclaim control over their lives.

Her belief in the importance of resilience serves as the foundation of her counseling approach, encouraging clients to rise after every fall and to keep moving forward with renewed strength and self-awareness. Emma’s therapeutic approach is grounded in person-centered care, emphasizing empathy, unconditional positive regard, and the client’s innate capacity for self-directed growth. She integrates several evidence-based modalities to foster healing and transformation.

These include psychodynamic therapy, which explores unconscious patterns and past experiences to bring about insight and change; Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET). Additionally, Emma incorporates trauma-informed care and mindfulness practices, helping clients cultivate awareness and emotional regulation. Emma’s academic background is rooted in understanding psychological theory and therapeutic practice. She earned her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Southern Methodist University (SMU), where she developed a strong foundation in psychological science, and later pursued a Master’s in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness from New York University (NYU).

Rio Hale

MSW Intern; 5 years of experience in the field

Earning MSW

As a pre-professional therapist, I bring both clinical training and deeply lived experience to my work. I grew up in the Wood River Valley, and returning has been one of the most meaningful parts of my journey. Over twenty years ago, I began my own recovery from addiction—an experience that continues to shape the compassion, presence, and authenticity I bring into the therapy room.

I work with adolescents and adults navigating addiction or recovery, anxiety, grief, identity shifts, and major life transitions. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for change, therapy with me offers a nonjudgmental space to explore your story at your own pace. My style is warm, grounded, and collaborative, rooted in genuine connection and honest conversation.

I integrate evidence-based and strengths-based, person-centered approaches, tailoring each session to your needs. Together, we’ll create a calm, supportive space to process what you’re carrying—whether it’s grief, anxiety, or the mix of fear and hope that often accompanies recovery. You don’t need to have everything figured out; you’ll be met exactly where you are. If you’re curious about therapy or ready to take the next step, I’d be honored to connect with you.

  • Trauma-Informed Therapy
