Emma Beale, LPC

I treat individuals and couples, with a primary focus on neurodivergent couples, including couples where one or both partners is managing OCD. About half of my caseload is comprised of couples and again another half have OCD or a related disorder.

I use a combination of ERP and ACT to treat OCD and anxiety, while layering a neurodivergent affirming lens for folks with autism or ADHD. I have advanced training in substance use disorders and especially employ a trauma informed approach when helping folks navigate the overlap between OCD and substance use.

I have been a therapist for 5 years, treating couples for about 2 years and OCD patients for the past year. I have completed trainings through IOCDF and NOCD and engage in monthly consultation with senior OCD experts affiliated with IOCDF. I am trained in the Gottman Method (level 1&2). I completed an NBCC minority addictions fellowship in my masters program.
