​Emily Starr, MS, LPC-TAC
Owner/Founder, Therapist

Hi! My name is Emily and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor. I received my Master of Science degree with an emphasis in Community Counseling from John Brown University in 2014 and have 18 years of combined experience in residential, outpatient, and school-based mental health treatment settings. 

​​​

I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Experiential Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy techniques to help clients understand how their past experiences shape their current behaviors and emotional responses. By providing a non-judgmental space to process and explore these connections together, I help guide my clients toward healthier coping strategies and more fulfilling relationships promoting personal growth and healing. My approach is compassionate, direct, and holistic- incorporating traditional therapy and outdoor experiences, animal assisted therapy, self-reflection, and a healthy dose of humor.

​​

I specialize in anxiety disorders, depression, trauma, women's issues, attachment wounds, values clarification, relationship issues, low self-esteem/self-worth, and issues related to divorce/custody and enjoy working with adolescents, college students, adults, and families.

​​​​​

I’m especially passionate about helping individuals break free from unhealthy relationship patterns, heal attachment wounds, and build self-trust. I believe that self-awareness, boundaries, and values alignment are key to cultivating fulfilling relationships and a strong sense of self. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, betrayal trauma, or major life transitions, my goal is to help my clients feel empowered, grounded, and confident in their choices.
