Meadowbrook CounselingPlymouth, Massachusetts

I collaborate with clients to create a trusting and comfortable environment where people can be themselves. We will work together to process through your stressors, fears, goals, and experiences to unbury the truth of it all... you already contain all that you need. You are the center of your therapeutic experience. I work best with adolescents, teens, young adults, couples, and families.

I have a humanistic, whole-person, strength based approach when working with clients. The goal is help each person develop an arsenal of tools that they can independently access when they need to. These tools are an integration of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and a range of therapeutic approaches.

The hardest first step is admitting that you need support and seeking out help. Be proud of achieving this step! The next part may seem intimidating but I promise it won't be. Let's work together and reach your goals.

About Me: Hello! I’m Emily Macdonald, a Mental Health Counselor Intern pursuing my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. With a Bachelor’s in Psychology and a passion for supporting others, I’m excited to begin this meaningful work alongside my clients.

My Approach: I believe therapy is most effective when it’s collaborative, trusting, and goal-oriented. Together, we’ll create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel empowered to explore your experiences and work toward meaningful change. My approach is rooted in solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing (MI), which I tailor to fit your unique needs. Whether you’re navigating life transitions, seeking personal growth, or addressing specific challenges, I’ll help you clarify your goals and develop practical steps to achieve them.

What to Expect:

• Warmth and empathy – I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust and understanding.
• Active collaboration – You are the expert of your own life; my role is to listen, guide, and support you.
• Gentle challenges – Growth often happens outside our comfort zones—I’ll encourage you with compassion as you progress.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel vulnerable, and I honor your courage in being here. If you’re ready to explore how counseling can support your journey, I’d love to connect.

My passion for helping others has been the driving force behind my career, leading me to spend the past decade and a half closely working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds. Throughout my journey as a counselor, I've had the privilege of serving in various settings, including schools, universities, hospitals, and even within the military. These experiences have not only allowed me to hone my skills but have also provided me with invaluable insights into human behavior and resilience.

Over the years, I've come to firmly believe that change is always within reach, regardless of where one finds themselves in life. With this unwavering belief, I approach each client, tailoring my therapeutic interventions to align with their unique strengths, needs, and aspirations, while ensuring a stance free of judgment or bias.

Embracing an integrative approach to psychotherapy, I draw upon a rich tapestry of therapeutic modalities from across history. Seamlessly weaving together elements from various schools of thought, I craft personalized treatment plans tailored to each individual's specific circumstances. Recognizing that talk therapy alone may not always suffice, I readily incorporate psychoeducation and experiential techniques into my sessions, understanding their potential to significantly enhance a client's journey towards self-discovery and growth.

My skill set extends beyond the realm of counseling. As a certified school teacher and fluent French speaker, I bring a unique perspective to my practice, enriching interactions with clients and effectively bridging language and cultural barriers. With graduate degrees in clinical mental health counseling and philosophy, my academic background provides a solid foundation for my work, offering me a nuanced understanding of the human psyche and the complexities of human existence.

Taking the first step toward therapy is an act of courage and self-care. If you're facing unexpected challenges, you don't have to navigate them alone. Here, you will find a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where your thoughts and feelings are validated.

As a Clinical Mental Health Counselor Intern, I am passionate about working with children, teens, and young adults to help them develop the skills and confidence needed to overcome obstacles. My approach is collaborative; we will work together to process difficult experiences and develop practical strategies for change. My goal is to empower you to build upon your strengths, accomplish your goals, and cultivate a lasting sense of self-worth.

I look forward to the opportunity to support you on your journey. Please reach out to schedule a consultation.

I believe that each person has the potential to live the life they truly want and that lasting change is possible. As a strengths-based therapist, client's strengths are built on and utilized in therapy to help the client work through the difficulties they are experiencing. I create a space where you can tell me anything without fear of judgment or me telling you how you should live life. Therapy is an interactive process and it shouldn’t look the same for each person. In addition to talk-therapy, I believe each person responds to different techniques and many times this includes use of music, art, and experiential interventions.

I have helped individuals with a variety of struggles from diverse backgrounds while working in a nationally renowned treatment center for years helping those struggling with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma/PTSD, grief, personality disorders, codependency, attachment, and family conflict.

I've overcome many struggles in my life and know how it feels to lose hope for a better life. Looking back on it, I always had someone that helped me get through those tough times. I hope I can be that person for you. You've already made a big step by looking into getting help! Offices Plymouth, MA and telehealth for WA, AZ, and UT. Text, call, or email. Talk to you soon.
