Hi! My name is Emmalee Norris and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My work with mental health started in 2013 and I have been licensed in California since 2021.

Crisis response and trauma work has always held my heart. My career path has led me through many challenging mental health focuses. Through graduate school, I supervised the suicide prevention and crisis line and after graduation I began working as a crisis clinician for Placer County’s mobile crisis team. Prior to taking the leap into private practice, I worked in forensic mental health specifically evaluating risk for clients that have been found not guilty by reason of insanity or incompetent to stand trial. Working in county mental health was very rewarding, but found myself wanting to focus on individual therapy more.

I started providing individual therapy sessions online in 2023 and have been loving it! During that time I discovered I really enjoy supporting working professionals that want to balance the personal and professional parts of their life. I use a conversational, no pressure, and no judgement approach to talking to clients. Almost always, people already have the answers and just need an outside person to guide you through those cloudy thoughts.
