Welcome to Counseling Services! My name is Emma Orlando, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. In my role as a Staff Counselor, I also serve as a key clinical resource for Student Support Services (SSS) and McNair Scholars programs. SSS is a federally funded TRIO program designed to support students from a wide variety of underrepresented backgrounds in their pursuit of higher education. McNair is a government supported program aimed to offer opportunities that enhance student’s aspirations towards doctoral study. For more information about these programs, please visit TRIO Student Support Services’ Program (SSS) and McNair Scholars Program.
As a therapist and as a human, I recognize that coming to college can provide a supply of new opportunities and challenges that are unique to each individual. I value a relational approach to therapy in order to foster compassion, healing, and growth. I am passionate about building a safe foundation to make space for experiences both past and present in a way that is intentional and meaningful. I believe that it is a privilege to join students in their journeys throughout college. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!
Fun Facts: I enjoy all things outdoors including hiking and horseback riding. Outside of therapy, I love to travel, read, and explore new hobbies.
