Hi, I'm Emmarose!

I’m a queer sex therapist offering unapologetically affirming care for individuals and relationships that don’t fit into society’s “traditional” mold. I work with clients who want depth, honesty, and real change without having to shrink any part of themselves. I also specialize in working with anxiety, ADHD, and autism, offering neurodivergent-affirming care that honors sensory needs the unique ways you experience the world.

Whether you’re looking to reignite the spark in your relationship, explore your sexuality, or embrace your true self unapologetically, I’m here to create a space where all parts of you are celebrated. This includes supporting clients navigating anxiety, burnout, masking, or executive dysfunction—especially as they show up in relationships, intimacy, and self-understanding.

In therapy, I’m a direct communicator. I believe honesty and clarity are essential for growth, and I’m not afraid to challenge you to step out of your comfort zone. As a proud queer woman, I know how important it is to feel seen and understood in therapy. I approach my work with curiosity and a good dose of humor because healing doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time.

Radically Real Therapy

My clinical specialties reflect the depth and expansiveness of queer relationships.

I am an integrative systemic therapist, meaning I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches to meet the unique needs of each client. I particularly enjoy using narrative therapy to help you untangle and release stories that no longer serve you, as well as parts work (formally known as Internal Family Systems) to explore different aspects of yourself and allow even conflicting parts to be in conversation with one another. This process can support inner child healing and foster greater self-understanding.

Meet Emmarose

I am pursuing a Master’s degree in Couple and Family Therapy with a specialization in Sex Therapy from Thomas Jefferson University. Along with my private practice, I also provide therapy at the Philadelphia Institute of Individual, Relational, and Sex Therapy (PhIIRST). I earned my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the Georgia Institute of Technology. In addition to my formal training, I worked at a Women’s Resource Center for three years, during which I also ran a local nonprofit focused on reproductive justice. These experiences, alongside my clinical education, have grounded me in both rigorous therapeutic practice and a deep commitment to inclusive, affirming care—particularly in the areas of relationships, sexuality, and identity.

I recognize that a therapist’s social location can be an important part of the therapeutic relationship for some clients. In the spirit of transparency and alignment, I’m happy to openly share that I identify as a lesbian, autistic, and polyamorous.

Outside of my clinical work, I’m someone who feels most at home in the rhythm of city life. I love spending my free time going to stand-up, improv, and burlesque shows, or wandering through Philadelphia’s river trails with an iced vanilla latte in hand and a comedy podcast playing in my headphones.

Let’s get started!

I’m so glad you’re here. I look forward to reading your message and will reach out within two business days to schedule a free 15-minute initial consultation.
