Emily Blackmoon
Emily wanted to become a therapist because of her own experience with eating disorders, body image, bullying, and separation/divorce. She is passionate about the idea of building a relationship with food as a way to be more intentional about what we eat. When working with clients going through separation or divorce, she encourages them to see their situation as an opportunity to redefine their lives and perhaps take it in a new direction. Emily is an avid hiker and home chef.

Booking FAQ
First Session charges each session directly to your credit card. Once each session occurs, and your card is charged, you will receive a PDF receipt to your email with all of the details you will need to get reimbursed (therapist name, license/designation, license number, address, etc). You can then submit the receipt to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have coverage.
We always recommend you check with your insurance provider to confirm what coverage you have.
You are the expert when it comes to knowing who is the right fit. Ensure you’ve watched the therapist video at the top of their profile and see if you get a good feeling from the message and the energy they are putting out. If you feel drawn to speak with them, listen to your gut! Booking a free consultation is a great first step to asses fit.
