Hey there, welcome to my virtual therapy space. I'm Emily Rice, here to join you on the adventure of self-exploration and growth. As your therapist, I am committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where we can work together to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. My approach is integrative, combining Person-Centered Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you gain insight and develop effective coping strategies. My Philosophy: I believe that therapy is a journey we embark on together. It's a partnership where your goals and values guide our work. My role is to support you, provide guidance, and offer tools to help you navigate life's challenges. I focus on fostering a compassionate and empathetic environment where you feel heard and understood. Our Work Together: In our sessions, we will work collaboratively to identify and address the patterns that may be holding you back. Using ACT, we'll practice unhooking from unhelpful thoughts and reconnecting with your core values. My aim is to empower you to live a more fulfilling and authentic life. Together, we'll create a tailored plan that suits your unique needs and goals. What to Expect: You can expect a warm, supportive atmosphere where your experiences are validated, and your strengths are highlighted. Whether you're navigating a significant life transition, managing stress, or seeking personal growth, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Getting Started with Online Therapy: Our therapy sessions are conducted through Simple Practice Telehealth, a secure and user-friendly platform. This means you can attend your session from the comfort of your own home, using your computer, smartphone, or tablet. Prior to your appointment, you'll receive an email with a link to access the virtual waiting room. You'll also have access to Simple Practice's client portal, where you can securely message me, view upcoming appointments, and access any documents or resources I've shared with you. At the scheduled time, simply click on the link in your email to join the session. Reaching Out: Reaching out for therapy can be intimidating, but I aim to provide a safe virtual space where we can talk about anything. For questions or scheduling an appointment, you can reach me by email, phone, or booking an appointment from my website. I look forward to hearing from you!
