Emily Fitzgerald Levine, LPC

Hello! I am a licensed professional counselor with a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Northwestern University. I completed my undergraduate degree at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, with a bachelor’s in gender, sexuality, feminist, and social justice studies, and minors in international development and art history. My clinical and research interests center around perinatal mental health and the relationship between feminism, psychotherapy, and collective liberation. I also have experience working in residential treatment for eating, mood, and anxiety disorders.

​

I am passionate about supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate the transition to parenthood. Adoption, surrogacy, assisted fertility treatments, difficult pregnancies, traumatic births, and pregnancy loss are all challenging and deeply personal experiences that deserve time and attention to integrate into your own narrative. I aim to provide a nonjudgemental space to process as we search for meaning together, and seek to transform your pain into wisdom, power, and deeper trust in yourself and your relationships.

As an active and engaged therapist, I do more than just listen. My style is comfortable, compassionate, and collaborative. I combine active listening with feedback, psychoeducation, and support. Together, we will identify your strengths, values, needs, and goals, and co-create your path to healing and joy.

​

My practice is rooted in an anti-racist, queer-aligned, body-positive approach. I draw from feminist theory, decolonization practices, existentialism, and somatic modalities. I am committed to examining how systemic factors like race, sex, and class affect wellness, and welcome clients of all races, genders, ages, religions, and sexualities. Let’s connect to ensure you have the support you need.
