Emma Ellington

MA, LCMHCA

Emma Ellington is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate with a passion for walking alongside individuals of all ages as they navigate life’s challenges. She believes in living life to the fullest and finding delight in everyday moments, while also recognizing the impact that trauma, stress, parenting, relationships, and mental health struggles can have on one’s ability to experience joy and wholeness.

Emma creates a warm, safe, and accepting environment in her counseling sessions, working from a foundational belief that every person has inherent value and holds the ability to become the hero of their own story.
Her approach is rooted in client-centered therapy, honoring each client’s unique journey, and integrates evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address harmful thought patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to build mindfulness and emotional regulation, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Trauma-Informed Care, and Sand Tray Therapy.

Emma has a particular interest in supporting young adults through life’s transitional periods and enjoys helping clients gain clarity and confidence as they pursue growth and healing.

When working with children, Emma uses an integrative approach grounded in Child-Centered Play Therapy, providing a safe space for emotional expression, skill-building, and healing through play—the child’s natural language. She also partners closely with parents, believing in the vital role they play in their child’s therapeutic journey, and aims to bring restoration and connection to the whole family system.
