come as you are.
i’ll meet you there.
Maybe you’ve been carrying more than anyone knows. Maybe you’ve gotten used to hiding how hard it’s been. Therapy offers a space to slow down, get curious, and build something more grounded from the inside out.

Welcome, I’m Ali! I’m a licensed clinical social worker based in Georgia and the founder of Emberwell. I support teens and adults navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, identity shifts, perfectionism, and those tender in-between places that feel messy or unclear.
My approach often resonates with people who are looking for more than symptom relief — they’re seeking deeper understanding, emotional clarity, and meaningful change. Therapy with me is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in real clinical tools, not just conversation. I draw from modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and narrative therapy to help you better understand your patterns, regulate your emotions, and build a life that feels more aligned with who you really are.
My goal is to create a safe space where you can be honest, feel supported, and make meaningful changes.
