Emo Sánchez

Everyone has a unique voice and story to tell. The world often silences that voice and prescribes a story that leaves us feeling anxious, depressed, resentful, or even emotionally burned out...because it is not our own. Many who come to therapy have heard or felt that inner voice wanting to break free of these tired scripts. Whether experiencing a life transition, healing old wounds, or simply longing for something more, I am here to walk alongside you.

As a life-long storyteller, I have seen the transformative power of reclaiming our narratives. Investigating the past helps inform the present moment, and can reveal a lot about how you’ve been telling your own story. Our work together will create space to unlock your genuine voice and begin imagining the story of who you truly are and wish to be in the world.

My practice is inclusive, culturally humble, and ever evolving. I work with adult individuals and couples who are internally motivated toward self-discovery. My work is collaborative, relational, and depth oriented, blending psychodynamic and experiential approaches that allow us to ask what is underneath the story you’re telling. We will sit with what is difficult, and get curious about new ways of relating.

Humans are experiential learners. Two decades of experience as a professional theatre artist and educator informs my understanding of the human condition and led me to become a therapist. My education and training at Columbia University adds clarity and focus to the work. It is a true privilege to explore your story together and uncover a meaningful path forward that embraces and celebrates who you are.
