Emily McNichols MA, LMHC, LMFTA
I am a licensed therapist specializing in the treatment of trauma, anxiety, and depression working primarily with teens and young adults who have experienced significant traumatic events and adverse life experiences. My goal is to help clients process difficult experiences, develop resilience, and build meaningful, lasting change.
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Clinical Psychology with a Minor in Gender Studies from Westminster University in 2014 and my Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Whitworth University in 2017. My training as a Marriage and Family Therapist informs my systemic approach to care, recognizing the impact that family, relationships, culture, and social systems have on mental health and healing.
I am trained in EMDR and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Experiential therapy, Art therapy techniques, and other evidence-based modalities to meet each client's unique needs. My work is grounded in trauma-informed care, creating a safe and collaborative space where clients can heal, grow, and reconnect with their strengths.
My experience as a school therapist has provided extensive opportunities to support adolescents and young adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions.
