Emily Thelen, LCPC<\/h2>\n

Primary Therapist<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”655e5f15-3ea1-46bf-9963-2b0c4f50c2ce” animation_style=”fade” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Emily Thelen received her Masters at Naropa University in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology, with an emphasis in Wilderness Therapy. Emily has worked in the therapeutic wilderness and transitional care industry since 2006 with adolescents, families, and young adults. She graduated from her home state\u2019s University of Wisconsin-La Crosse as a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS) and has held a Wilderness First Responder (WFR) Certification since 2006.<\/p>\n

While she has EMDR and SMART Recovery training, she also leans on the use of positive psychology, ACT, nature, ritual, and ceremony in the healing and transformation process. Her kind and yet firm approach is what makes her an effective disruptor in the healing process.<\/p>\n

Emily is passionate about seeing and bringing forward the bright light that exists in all of us, in spite of and because of our past stories and struggles. It is a pure joy for Emily to mentor and model health and healing with these courageous young women who are choosing to develop, explore, and deepen their own sense of selves.<\/p>\n

The healing power of nature continues to run deep in Emily\u2019s life while living and working in one of the most beautiful parts of the country. Emily enjoys quality over quantity, bikepacking, snowboarding, and small gestures that make the world a better place.<\/p>\n
