Emily Michalski

Emily is a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist with a Master of Science Degree in Creative Arts Therapies and a concentration in Visual Arts from Nazareth University. Emily identifies as Queer and holds a safe space for the LGBTQIA+ community. She compassionately supports clients along their journeys of self-discovery while also assisting in fostering a sense of community and connection. In her free time, Emily enjoys reading, hiking, camping, snuggling with her cat, and doing anything art related.

Emily is creative and compassionate in her approach to working with others. Emily utilizes a person-centered approach, placing value on the notion that you know yourself best. She has unique clinical experience working with eating disorders, gender diversity, suicidal ideation, identity development, life transitions, body image, grief, anxiety, and depression.

As humans, we begin to heal as soon as we feel heard. I believe in the power of listening to client expression, whether that be through art, music, movement, or words. You have a light within you that can sometimes be dimmed by the pressures of the world. Through the process of self-expression and self-reflection, you have the potential to let your light become a beacon for yourself.
