Emily Hulse, LPC
(814) 807-0861

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania with 10 years of clinical experience, and I have been licensed for 5 of those years.

I graduated from Clarion University with a bachelor’s degree in Rehabilitation Science and Human Services. After gaining meaningful experience working in the mental health field, I went on to earn my master’s degree in clinical Mental Health Counseling from Waynesburg University.

I have experience providing evidence-based therapy to individuals, couples, and families. Over the years, I’ve worked in outpatient, community-based, and school-based settings, supporting adults as well as children from kindergarten through 12th grade.  I recently obtained my certification as a Registered Play Therapist and completed EMDR Therapy Basic Training with a focus on how to apply EMDR with children through play therapy.    

I am qualified to offer therapeutic interventions for a wide range of mental health diagnoses, including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, and other trauma related conditions.

My approach integrates a variety of evidence-based modalities, including Child Centered Play Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Synergetic Play Therapy techniques, Theraplay techniques, polyvagal theory techniques, EMDR for both adults and children with  a play-based focus, and Cognitive Processing Therapy.  Additionally, I am attending on-going training with the goal of pursuing my certification in Synergetic Play Therapy.   

I believe strongly in taking a team approach and working collaboratively to support healing—for you and your children. When I meet with you, I am ready to listen and meet you exactly where you are. I find great joy in helping children and clients recognize their strengths, overcome the impact of trauma, and move toward a bright and fulfilling future. I look forward to being part of your or your child’s healing journey.

Outside of my work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our two children. I also love swimming, crafting, reading, listening to music, and traveling to new places.
