EmRee Pugmire

Life is hard, but it is not hopeless. There are many circumstances we would not choose to be part of our lives. These circumstances may even limit our choices. I have learned that it doesn’t really matter if these limiting circumstances were brought on by yourself or others, if they were intentional or unintentional consequences of past or present behaviors, or if they are randomly introduced. Regardless, they are absolutely frustrating, painful, and time consuming.

I am honored to work with individuals and families who are seeking professional support in these times. My clinical training, 20 plus years of clinical experience and life experience allows me to partner with you as you utilize your best skills, build additional skills and learn to magnify your choices by identifying patterns in yourself, your relationships and your interactions.
