About Emma Powers
“Every person who comes to Ellie brings their own unique story with them, so therapy can’t be a one-size-fits-all solution. Emma recognizes that uniqueness by blending a variety of therapy approaches and interventions to support each client’s history, needs, and strengths. She supports adolescents, adults, couples, and families as they work toward harmony and wellness. She is especially passionate about helping couples explore their relationships and build communication, connection, and intimacy. She is also a certified sex offender treatment provider trainee, providing court-mandated and elective treatment for problematic or concerning sexual behaviors.
A VCU graduate, Emma holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Sociology and a Master’s degree in Counselor Education, with a focus on couples and family counseling. She has additional training in DBT, CBT, and the Gottman Method. Outside of the therapy office, she spends her time painting, going to concerts (especially K-POP), and playing with her leopard gecko, Sunny!
