Emma Ellington
MA, LCMHCA, NCC
Emma Ellington earned her master’s degree in clinical counseling at Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary in Charlotte, NC. Emma has experience working with adults, teens, and children. Emma is passionate about helping individuals as they work through stressors of life, anxiety, depression, and difficult life changes and adjustments, and working collaboratively with parents as she works with children in therapy.
Emma is trained in working with clients from a basis of client-centered therapy, believing that each person has inherent value and addresses the needs and approach unique to each client, integrated with cognitive behavioral therapy, helping to identify harmful thoughts and change harmful patterns that can result in reduced stress and increase desired results. Emma is trained in child-centered play therapy and believes in the importance of a safe space for children to process their experiences, and the importance of building a collaborative relationship with parents while working towards the child’s goals during therapy. Emma can integrate other techniques, such as sand tray therapy, DBT, and a variety of other interventions as needed with clients.
