About Me

I’m Emily Wagner, a licensed professional counselor, working in the mental health field for the past 10 years, practicing therapy since 2011. My experience includes working in residential treatment with youth, providing outpatient treatment focusing on addiction in adults, working with families, treating trauma, providing supportive services for military families, and working in community mental health. I am a licensed professional counselor and chemical dependency counselor II in the state of Alaska, as well as a Nationally Certified Counselor. 

​

I completed my Masters of Science in Counseling Psychology at the University of Kansas, and have continued my education and training with a full heart since completing my degree. I have completed various trainings and pursued additional credentialing and licensing. Currently, I am training to be a registered play therapist. Please refer to the Therapy Practice section of my website for more details regarding my training and certifications. 

​

I am a member of the American Counseling Association and am also active in the Alaska Association for Play Therapy and serving as a member of the executive board. 

In my life outside of work, I throw myself into enjoying everything that makes Alaska great. During the summer I spend much of my time outdoors, camping, fishing, hiking, and cycling, and am always looking for a new adventure.
