EMDR Therapist.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW). My therapeutic approach comes from a place of empathy, support and collaboration. It also comes from a place of experience, having traveled down the road of therapy, I have experienced first hand the power of gaining insight coupled with removing shame and self-judgement. I believe we all have an inner wisdom and know ourselves best. I am here as a partner to help you tap into your strengths and live the life that you so desire.

The relationship we have with our family is the method by which we learn to be people. It is how we learn to trust, care and to love. My mission is to assist families with open communication, building trust, and cultivating respect and understanding of each other. My focus is to help individuals, couples and families discover inner strength , energize their goals and dreams, and become aware of their gifts. I provide a neutral space to facilitate self exploration, self discovery and inner growth. I use sincerity and earnestness to help you deeply explore the things that may be holding you back from your true authentic life. Let's work together to learn to grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.

Are you struggling with anxiety, critical self-talk, bad habits, or relationship problems? Are you repeating the same negative behaviors, knowing they're not working, but not knowing how to stop? People can make changes to their lives, but it can feel so overwhelming, impossible, and hopeless to face problems alone. You don't have to be alone. I am a licensed clinical psychologist who provides individual therapy to adults. I supply a safe, caring, nonjudgmental space so that you can explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that lead to that feeling of being stuck or that thought of not knowing what to do next instead. You want to be able to actually go through the day calm, cool, and collected. Imagine feeling confident, in control, and in charge of your life. You want to enjoy your friends and family. You want to enjoy the work you do. I can help you get there!

Welcome. Im glad you’re here. As of November 3rd, 2025, I am accepting new clients. If you’ve found your way here, it may be a tender or difficult time. Psychotherapy can be a life-changing process — loosening old patterns and opening space for more vitality, connection, and creativity. I work best with people who are ready to look inward and make meaningful changes, even when it feels hard. My style is honest, compassionate, and direct, and I deeply respect both how challenging and life-affirming this work can be.

I welcome your courage in sharing your challenges with me and believe that we can work together using evidence-based therapy to create change. Our relationship matters to me and I will check in with you frequently about our work. I bring respect, empathy, humor, and authenticity (I'm a real person!) to the therapy room. I often work with body image and eating issues (e.g., food restrictionother), addiction, anxiety & OCD, insomnia, depression, trauma & PTSD, shame, perfectionism, relationship issues and parenting. I am a certified couples' and Level 2 AEDP and IFS therapist. I also use mindfulness, CBT and DBT heavily in my practice. I draw on evolutionary psychology to understand how our feelings (e.g., anxiety, fear, anger, joy) evolved to protect us and push us to take survival-oriented actions that we may or may not want to take. I use mindfulness to help us gain awareness of feelings and make new choices when needed. I am part-time faculty at Harvard Medical School, where I trained. I often work with adult professionals as well as adolescents and young adults. I enjoy meditating and spending time in nature — rock-climbing, hiking and cycling. I grew up in Europe in a diverse family and bring a multicultural sensitivity to therapy. I conduct therapy in French and Spanish as well, languages I am fluent in. https:www.dremilymanove.com

Sometimes you can be in a room full of people yet feel completely alone. This feeling of isolation or lack of connection is often the core of depression and anxiety. Once these feelings take hold they can be a constant hindrance, keeping you from reaching your full potential. Often, we know in our hearts that we can excel, but self-doubt creeps in and sabotages our efforts which can keep us from reaching goals. We all have an inner-critic which can take hold though negative self-talk. For example, have you ever said to yourself, "I have no idea what I'm doing - I'm a fraud" or "If people really knew things about me they'd run in the other direction". This inner dialogue can be excruciatingly painful and can be damaging to our self-esteem when left unchecked. In some people this inner critic runs 247 and causes them to lose confidence and engage in behaviors that can compound their problems and make things even worse. I can help. Reaching out can be a hard thing to do, but I am here to support you in your time of need. I want to understand what you're going through. It is vital to have someone on your side, who can accept you unconditionally, who connects and empathizes with you, who offers you a safe place to talk about whatever you need to talk about. Maybe you feel lost and just need to clear your head. We are all different and unique, but I believe we all have the answers inside. Let me help you find your answers.

I've always loved a good story, and what is therapy about if not the story of each of us as individuals? Maybe yours includes parts you don't quite understand, worries that spill into other areas of your life, low points, or serious traumas, or a section that just isn't going the way you thought it would. The way I do therapy is a journey of exploring and seeking out a deeper understanding to help you find strength and clarity. I hold a doctorate in clinical psychology from William James College, specializing in child and family psychology. My clinical expertise is in working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), identity issues, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), and other stressors. I draw on modalities of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), narrative therapy, and family systems. I am a clinical psychologist seeing individual clients in navigating life transitions, stress, identity issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other challenges. I operate from orientations of liberation, social justice, racial justice, empowerment, feminism, and cultural respect. Any point in your life can be a moment of realization—a point when something feels out of place, and you're driven to explore and question what you know and understand about yourself and the world at large. These are the moments when I join clients in support of them reaching deeper cohesion in how they want to experience themselves and move through the world. I hope we can work together to create a little more ease in your life, so that you feel empowered to Walk Good on the next part of your journey!
