Professional Background
Emma spent six years working as a Registered Behavior Technician in a variety of settings, including elementary and middle schools, adult residential facilities, and in-home therapy environments. During this time, she gained extensive experience supporting individuals with developmental disabilities and developed strong skills in behavior management, crisis de-escalation, and compassionate, client-centered care.
During her internship year as part of her Master’s program, she served as a Wellness Counselor intern at an elementary school, where she continued to develop her clinical skills while advocating for the mental, emotional, and social well-being of children and their families within the school system. This experience has strengthened her passion for supporting youth and collaborating with families and educators to create supportive environments for growth and well-being. Emma started her trainee experience with Advent in February of 2026 and has since worked to develop skills related to Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
