The Consultation Room is the private practice of therapist and educator, Emily Schreter.

Hi, I’m Emily, and my life’s work is helping people find their voice and reconnect to themselves—especially when they’ve built a life that looks good on paper, but feels misaligned beneath.

I hold therapeutic spaces where people can explore the internal workings of mind, body, and heart—and start rewriting the narrative that’s been quietly running the show.

My Story

I know this work intimately because I’ve lived it.

Learning to trust myself didn’t come easily. It began with slowing down, listening inward, and questioning the thought patterns and behaviors that had been running on autopilot for years.

Eventually, I found the courage to speak more freely, live more fully, and reshape the way I related to time, achievement, and self-worth.

Now, I spend my days practicing presence, honoring my intuition, and choosing work that energizes and nourishes me—and the world around me.

I want a life like that for you, too.

Not because it’s “perfect,” but because it’s rooted in truth, healing, and self-trust.

And I believe the world needs your unique gifts more than ever.

What I Do

I support high-achieving, introspective people who are seeking a deeper relationship with themselves, their work, and their lives. Most of my clients are successful by most standards—but feel disconnected, anxious, lonely, stuck or unfulfilled beneath the surface.

Together, we explore the roots of those patterns—whether they’re relational, emotional, or embedded in the nervous system—and create space for clarity, healing, and integration.

My approach draws from relational psychodynamic therapy, somatic approaches, the mind-body connection, creative exploration, and trauma-informed care. I’m also deeply influenced by art, philosophy, and nature—all of which inform how I think about healing and change.

  • Persistent anxiety or low mood

  • Self-doubt, inner criticism, or chronic over-functioning

  • Repetition or sabotage in relationships

  • Mysterious or unexplainable physical symptoms

  • Loss, transition, or existential questions

  • Creative blocks, procrastination, or fear of visibility

  • Difficulty processing trauma or making meaning from pain

The Challenges I Work With Often Include:

If you’re feeling the pull to slow down, examine your patterns, and start living in deeper alignment with yourself—I’d be honored to explore what working together might look like.
