Approach
In the field of psychiatry, individuals often feel lost within a larger, sometimes impersonal system, where providers may unintentionally adopt a directive, authoritative role, and patients are reduced to mere numbers. In these situations, patients may lack adequate information, feel like they have no say in their care, and be unaware of the full range of treatment options available to them. At Empowered Psychiatry, we are committed to changing this dynamic. Our goal is to empower individuals to take charge of their own lives by providing clear, accessible information about their options, educating them on their potential paths forward, and supporting them in becoming the best version of themselves.
Emma often uses the following analogy with her patients: "You’re in the driver’s seat, and you’re in control. As your passenger, I can offer guidance—suggesting a left or a right turn—but ultimately, the direction is yours to choose. You have the power to set your goal and decide your path. My role is to help you reach your goals, supporting you in whichever direction you decide to take first.” Our aim is not to help you reach a goal we assume into being, but rather to help you decide what goals you would like to reach, and help lay out the foundation for these future steps.
Individualized Care
My focus is on dedicating the time and effort to truly understand you and your belief system. I provide treatment that is individualized and tailored to your unique needs, beliefs, history, and goals. I believe that treatment is most effective when you feel comfortable and supported throughout the process. That’s why I offer personalized treatment recommendations that align with your values and, above all, respect your independence.
Comprehensive Provider
I am dedicated to a comprehensive approach to psychiatric care, viewing medication as just one tool in your toolbox. I focus on creating a tailored treatment plan that may include therapy, lifestyle changes, and other supportive services. I work closely with you to assemble a personalized team, ensuring you receive well-rounded care that empowers you on your journey to mental wellness. If I don't have a referral on hand, I take the time to personally research and find the best fit for you, so you don’t have to worry about it.

Empowerment
I am committed to empowering my patients by providing personalized care that respects their values and individuality. Through a collaborative approach, I focus on equipping each person with the tools and support they need to take control of their mental health journey. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered to make informed decisions for your well-being.
