Emily Spirk

Emily Spirk, M.Ed., centers her work on creating a safe space for authenticity and personal growth and cultivates trusting relationships with her clients, enabling them to show up as their genuine, imperfect selves in therapy. She specializes in working with neurodivergent individuals, women, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community who are grappling with anxiety and/or depression.

She emphasizes partnership in the therapeutic process and collaborates closely with her clients to determine individual goals, using a holistic approach; she believes "practice makes progress."

At Forward Wellness Counseling she offers in-person sessions at the Squirrel Hill location and telehealth options, with evening appointments, and welcomes clients seeking support in reproductive mental health, boundary work, and those working in helping professions.
