Emily Von Hausen

About Emily

I specialize in helping people who feel emotionally or mentally disconnected from themselves and/or their lives. When we feel different facets of identity at conflict with one another or feel fragmented from our outside world, bodies, community, and/or goals, it can be difficult to find inner resources and nurture unmet needs. I specialize in perceived fragmentations like these which can manifest in many ways, ranging from general feelings of aimlessness, uncertainty, or purposelessness, to the following experiences: depersonalization/derealization, depression, anxiety, substance use challenges, and grief.

I tailor my approach to each individual. This means I adapt to your capacity and your values. I see you as an expert in your identity, and collaborate with you to develop a life that feels purposeful and intentional. This involves contextualizing and processing your pain, finding sources of personal meaning, and integrating them into your surroundings.

If you are experiencing these challenges, they are there for a reason. My approach involves empathically exploring why these symptoms may be showing up for you, examining unmet needs that may underlie them, and addressing them in ways that feel meaningful, accessible, and sustainable. If you would like to know more please contact me for a free consultation.
