Emma Dicea, LLMSW

While I am strongly passionate about helping and guiding children and adolescents, I am also devoted to working with clients of all ages through their past, current and future experiences. Although entering therapy can be difficult and uncomfortable, I believe that we learn and grow by leaning into uncomfortable experiences. Therapy can be the space where we learn to trust the process just by starting somewhere and trusting that we will get somewhere useful together. This is why I create a trusting environment where I build a relationship with clients and offer them a safe space to be heard. All emotions are normal and it is safe to feel them. Feeling them won’t harm you, what can be harmful are the ways we react to them, cope with them, and avoid them.
As a therapist I am committed to assisting you in finding what works best for you when it comes to managing your physical and mental health. I strongly believe that you have within you what it takes to create and build the quality of life you deserve. I will empower you and work alongside you as you face adversity as well as celebrate and acknowledge your progress and achievements.
Using cognitive behavioral therapy in addition to other integrative therapy approaches, together we will reflect on how thoughts influence behavior, and break down problems into manageable parts in a way that can help us to better understand the problems and cope with them.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about me. I look forward to meeting you.
