MEET DR. EMMA KATE REIF
"There is no pattern of behavior that can't be broken or changed." ~ Debbie Ford
Welcome! My name is Dr. Emma Kate Reif, and I’m a licensed psychologist and Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC) located in Charlotte, NC. I'm someone who loves meeting others and hearing their story. I’m just like you, a human who is constantly learning and growing with the peaks and valleys of life!
In my free time I enjoy reading, expanding my knowledge of the brain and neuroscience, and I also love exploring my intuitive work. Believing and trusting my intuition has been a big theme in my life. I am passionate about helping others search and connect with meaning in their lives!
I want you and your family to find more joy, and discover your personal power. You can do anything you want. Changing your thoughts changes your life. Joy is just around the corner - you got this!
MY APPROACH
"Life is not about the outcome, but rather finding joy in the journey." ~ Unknown
As a therapist, I act as your guide or companion on the unique journey of your life! Learning not to get hooked by thoughts and feelings, but instead observing and noticing reactions and responses. I support individuals in becoming open and curious about their experiences, which fosters hope for a brighter future. No matter the obstacle, you are creative, resourceful and whole!
You are not broken, and you do not need fixing! You may feel that way now, but I believe in you and your ability to see yourself with compassion. Accepting that your mind is only trying to help you, even when you feel it’s doing a terrible job, is a powerful skill. When we accept life, while simultaneously acting toward our goals, we are able to flourish and grow!
My therapeutic approach incorporates Positive Psychology (e.g., compassion, gratitude, mindfulness, and resilience to stress), as well as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), and other forms of treatment. Upon request, I also incorporate spiritual psychology involving intuition, energy-work, tarot, and astrology.
