Who is Emily?

I’m Emily Rose Waitt, LMFT, PsyD(c), a psychotherapist, founder, writer, and speaker focused on adolescent and young adult mental health. My work is grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, attachment theory, family systems, and developmental neuroscience. I help teens, young adults, and families understand what is happening beneath the surface of symptoms, whether anxiety, ADHD, depression, emotional reactivity, shutdown, avoidance, family conflict, or difficulty launching into adulthood.
