A Soul Awake Psychotherapy

A Soul Awake Psychotherapy | MODERN THERAPY FOR THE MODERN WOMAN | EST. 2022

ILLINOIS | MARYLAND | WASHINGTON

hello there.

I’m Emily Rose Barr (she/her), MS, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), and National Certified Counselor (NCC). Whether this is your first time in therapy or you have worked with a therapist in the past, you are welcome here.

We all experience difficulties from time to time, and despite our best efforts to go it alone, we are perhaps never stronger than when we have the courage to ask for help. At A Soul Awake Psychotherapy, I work exclusively with women in their early 20s to mid-40s whose lives have gotten a bit off kilter.

Resilient, bright, determined women.

Fatigued, stressed, and anxious women.

A Soul Awake Psychotherapy: Breathe In, Breathe Out

Women who need a reminder of who they are beneath their carefully polished exteriors.

I know what it’s like to hide behind the pretenses of perfectionism and people-pleasing; to appraise yourself based on the opinions of others; to take on the emotions of loved ones while not paying enough attention to your own. But I also know what it’s like to lead from a self-affirming space, one in which you can honor your needs and live by your values.

During our work together, I’ll invite you to come as you are, not as who others demand you to be. I will always ask how you’re doing, how you’re really doing, and sit with you as you find your voice.

You’ll learn how to accept your experience while quieting self-judgment, and replace thoughts of inadequacy with a balanced understanding of who you are and who you are working toward becoming.

A reminder that they are whole because of their flaws and failures, not in spite of them.

SOULOSOPHY | SOU·LOS·O·PHY | NOUN

A SYSTEM OF THOUGHTS OR BELIEFS THAT BEGIN IN ONE’S SOUL BEFORE TRAVELING TO THE MIND

I believe that our capacity for growth is unlimited. That how we show up in the world is a reflection of our past, present, and in-progress selves.

I believe that there are no “good” parts or “bad” parts, only parts that long to be heard; and that when we are at our best, these parts function in harmony.

I believe that the most comfortable dwelling space we can create is the one within ourselves. That when we nurture it, we can always feel at home.

I believe that what you share is meaningful simply because it is a part of your story. I believe that no victory is too small to celebrate and no wound too big to heal.

Above all, I believe that none of us is here by accident or irony, and that who you are today is a single note in an unfolding melody.

What Clients Are Saying About A Soul Awake Psychotherapy

During my time with Emily, she created a safe space to work through some of my challenges. She perfectly balanced empathetically meeting me where I was and gently challenging me to reframe negative thoughts. She provided great tools and resources to help me learn more about myself and find greater self-love. Emily is the reason I encourage all my loved ones to participate in therapy!

SAMANTHA M.

From the beginning, Emily took great care in listening to me and was able to hone in on what I was saying versus what was underlying. She challenged me to view things from different angles, allowing me to build a robust toolbox I continuously turn to while navigating life. I am grateful for her support.

STACY P.

I started therapy with Emily in 2020 and I am so thankful I did! She has helped me shift my mindset and helped me work on being less of a people pleaser and more of a Gabrielle pleaser. I am so thankful for our sessions as she often will help me reframe negative thoughts and see them in a different light. I cannot begin to praise Emily enough!!

GABRIELLE S.

I’ve been in counseling with Emily for over 2 years. Though I came to her with a specific issue in mind, she not only helped me address that concern, but many others related to anxiety, family, career, and my romantic relationship. I’ve found her to be a caring and encouraging presence who helps me reframe thoughts, gain new insights, and identify specific strategies to address different patterns and issues. She supports and respects my values and has done it all from a virtual environment.
