Emily Priestaf, LMHC, LPC

Emily's ability to gain visibility on the core blocks that hold me back from my wants/desires, has been noticeable from the very start. I always word vomit how I'm feeling, without any structure, and she always somehow brings it back in an organized and structured way that I could never create for myself. Every question almost that Emily has asked, along with the sequence, has illuminated entire blindspots that end up changing my life as soon as my brain knows to look out for that thing. The effects are instantaneous, our brain does the work for us once we know what to focus on - and Emily has absolutely given me those focus points. Thank you Emily!

Emily is absolutely outstanding. Every session I have I come out feeling refreshed and having tools to tackle life. I was so nervous to be vulnerable with someone professional but all she has done is curb that fear. For someone who saw herself as so broken and lost and only after just a few sessions seeing myself stronger and more willing to take advice, it’s stands as a testimony to counseling. I have far more work to do for myself but I’m much more excited for that now more than ever. I thank Emily so much, and I will continue to listen to her professional advice as long as she’ll have me!

Emily is wonderful! She is kind and caring and challenges you to think in different ways. By doing therapy with her, my life has improved significantly for the better and I feel for the first time in my life I have a handle on my anxiety and depression. She is encouraging, and I am grateful for the opportunity to work with her on this journey of therapy. She is a phenomenal therapist, and has made a positive difference in my life!

Been making a lot of progress thanks to my weekly appointment with Emily. She is great in regards to offering strategies to cope with overwhelming and irrational negative feelings, working with me through depressive episodes, and being supportive yet challenging me about my adhd behavioral struggles. Also, she does a great job being empathetic. I always feel comfortable with her and look forward to our sessions!

She is very encouraging and helps talk me through what I’m feeling. Being back in therapy has helped a lot and I couldn’t be more grateful to have her as my therapist.
