About Us
The name “Emerald Path Therapy” was chosen with deep intention. Our name is more than just a title—it’s a reflection of the work we do and the kind of space we strive to hold.
The qualities of the emerald are deeply aligned with the therapeutic process and mirror the journey to healing, reminding us that even in the midst of struggle and seasons of uncertainty, change is possible.
That is why we chose the emerald. Not just for what it is, but for what it stands for.
At Emerald Path Therapy, we believe healing isn’t linear. It is not a fixed destination, it’s a path—sometimes winding, sometimes quiet, but always worthy of being walked with care.

our name
Respecting the fundamental human right to self-determination and freedom of choice. We believe autonomy is an essential foundation for meaningful therapy and sustainable practice. We are committed to honoring the power of choice, trusting that people thrive when choice on their own terms is not only possible, but protected and supported.
AUTONOMY
OVER
AUTHORITY
Showing up with self-awareness and embracing the truth of who we are without pretense or perfection. We believe healing begins when we are attuned and fully engaged in honesty and self-awareness, creating space for others to do the same—even when it’s uncomfortable.
PRESENCE
OVER
PERFORMANCE
Prioritizing service from a place of purpose first, profit second. We believe every decision we make should be guided by compassion, not commerce. We are committed to human wellness, connection, and care over financial gain, from how we show up for clients to how we support our team.
PEOPLE
OVER
PROFIT
Honoring the unique knowledge clients bring as the experts of their own lives, and building therapeutic goals with them, not for them. We engage in therapy as a relationship and a shared process built on mutual trust and respect, empowering clients to lead their own path toward growth, healing, and change.
COLLABORATION

OUR VALUES
OUR MISSION
At Emerald Path Therapy, our mission is to provide high-quality, personalized mental health services to individuals of all ages, couples, and families.
We are committed to delivering culturally responsive services grounded in clinical expertise and client-informed care, honoring each client’s unique story, lived experiences, and the diverse systems that shape their identities.
our vision
To cultivate an inclusive community where every person—both clients and clinicians—feels seen, valued, and empowered.
We strive to create a more connected, compassionate world by expanding access to affirming mental health care for individuals, couples, and families, while supporting clinicians in building independence, stability, and purpose.
our purpose
What do you do when a path doesn't exist? You build one.
Despite vast advancements in the mental health industry,, financial hurdles continue to trap people on both sides of the therapy room. The lack of affordable care strain those seeking support, while low reimbursement rates strain those providing it—leaving too many people stuck between wanting help but being unable to afford it, or wanting to help but being unable to sustain it.
Our vision sprung forth from a single clinician, as a newly single mom, in a single office suite, with a single simple dream: to bridge this critical gap in the mental health field—connecting those seeking care with those called to provide it.
Rooted in a dual commitment to client well-being and clinician sustainability, we seek to offer accessible, compassionate mental health services while empowering providers to deliver high-quality, impactful care.
