Meet Emrielle VanCleave, LMFT C-PD CCTP-II

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Personality Disorder Treatment Provider (C-PD), and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Level II: Complex Trauma (CCTP-II), I specialize in complex mental health challenges, trauma recovery, and relational dynamics. I am also a Certified Clinical Telemental Health Provider focusing on how I can ensure the most effective treatment is available through a virtual setting. I am actively pursuing Schema Therapy certification for individuals and couples, receiving ongoing supervision, and am a proud member of the International Society of Schema Therapy (ISST). I am also actively pursuing EMDR certification.

My Approach

My therapeutic style is rooted in understanding how past experiences shape present emotions, behaviors, and relationships. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for clients to explore their inner world, develop self-awareness, and create meaningful change. By integrating Schema Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic therapy, and other evidence-based modalities, I help clients identify and heal deep-seated patterns that impact their lives.

Beyond Therapy

I am passionate about human behavior, neuroscience, trauma research, and the science of connection—often exploring topics like quantum mechanics and psychology in my free time. Outside of my clinical work, I cherish time with my husband and children, enjoy creative arts, a comforting cup of tea, and find relaxation in the outdoors, video games, and self-care.
