Emily Millman

Welcome! I’m Emily, the founder and sole clinician at North of Now Therapy. I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy for adults navigating anxiety, grief, infertility, and life transitions.

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Pittsburgh and hold a Master of Social Work from Loyola University Chicago. I am licensed to practice in Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Michigan.

Over the years, I’ve worked in a variety of settings including schools, community mental health clinics, and private practice. These experiences have allowed me to support individuals from diverse backgrounds as they navigate complex emotional and psychological challenges.

My work is collaborative and trauma-informed, drawing on CBT, EMDR, ACT, and

psychodynamic therapy to meet you where you are. Sessions start with your story. For

anxiety, grief, infertility, depression, and trauma, that means naming what you have

been carrying, processing it at a pace that feels safe, and building tools that actually

hold up in your daily life. As you shift, our work shifts with you.

Your first session is a conversation, not a checklist. We will talk about what brought you to therapy, what you have been experiencing, and what you hope will feel different. You do not need to have it all figured out before we meet. By the end of the hour, you will have a sense of how we will work together and a space that already feels safe to return to.
