About Dr. Emily Keller

My goal is to connect people to a sense of wonder

• Offering teletherapy/counseling to individuals who are grieving, healing, and growing.
• Offering play therapy training and supervision to help psychotherapists working with children to understand the role of wonder in growth and healing.
• Incorporating expressive arts and play to transform groups and communities.

My Approach to Psychotherapy

I work with individuals, couples, families, and children. I integrate energy psychotherapy, redecision therapy, gestalt therapy, play therapy and sand tray therapy to help clients grieve, heal, and grow. 

Many of us miss out on essential emotional literacy, mindfulness techniques, and communication skills during our childhood. Without these tools, we grow up either too disconnected from our feelings or too unclear about what our very strong feelings are saying. As a result, we often don’t trust our intuition and aren’t sure about what we want.

As an individual, as a partner, or a parent, you may feel that life lacks meaning and purpose and that you are stuck in a rut. By increasing awareness and emotional literacy skills, you can grieve/let go, heal past hurts, and grow into authenticity.

My belief is that when we are connected with our authentic, true self, we see the beauty and wonder in ourselves and others. Then, we are willing to feel, think, and problem-solve cooperatively — despite our differences.
