Emillia Hacker

Hello, my name Emillia Hacker and I have over 10 years of experience in acute crisis intervention, inpatient, and intensive outpatient treatment settings. I am a graduate of Southern Nazarene University with a bachelor's in Family Studies and Gerontology and a master's in counseling psychology. I have a wide breath of experience and specialize in the treatment of symptoms of depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, eating disorders, self-harm, chronic suicidal ideations, and substance abuse. I am effective with personality disorders and childhood trauma. I have worked extensively with military and first responders, and their families and I am a STAR trained military provider. I have also worked with First Americans across the state of Oklahoma and carry specialized training in working with addictions and families who have experienced generational trauma.

My approach starts with compassion and curiosity. I am primarily oriented towards a psychodynamic approach. I am client centered and solution focused, assisting you in finding the best solutions for yourself and your current situation. Everything has value and meaning and my goal is always to empower you to create a life for yourself that you are eager to wake up for and experience.

During our first session, we will review your intake and exchange a lot of information. I am primarily looking to build a solid foundation of your history, and I want to explain as much as possible about what you might expect in working with me. I will go over therapeutic expectations and ask you about goals that you might have for yourself in seeking therapeutic support. Clients should expect simply to meet one another and us evaluate together if a therapeutic alliance would be a good fit between us. The biggest challenge is often making the decision and taking the first step to improve your health and well-being.
