Unlock Your Full Potential.

We often find ourselves trapped in outdated habits and emotional cycles that once served a purpose but now obstruct our growth. Emily is dedicated to guiding you in recognizing these patterns and facilitating the changes necessary to fulfill your potential.

About Emily Gregory, LMSW

I consider it a great privilege and honor to walk alongside others as they navigate life's challenges, helping them feel truly known and understood. I believe that anyone can benefit from participating in therapy and having a safe space to work toward their goals.

Helping you reach higher toward growth and healing is my goal in every session. To get there, we'll work together to create a comfortable, judgment-free space so you can let it all out - the hurts from the past, complicated feelings, and anything else you may want to share. My hope for you as a client is that you feel seen and walk out of my office feeling lighter than when you came in, ready to conquer whatever is next.

I use a person-centered approach that incorporates elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I received my Master's in Social Work from the University of Iowa and my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Iowa State University. I have experience in working with individuals and couples on relationship issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, and life changes.

Whether you are finding it difficult to connect with your partner, going through a big change, feeling stuck, needing to process big emotions, or simply wanting to understand yourself better, I’m here for you. Let’s talk!
