Emily Firth
Neurofeedback Technician
Provides in-person sessions at our office in Ogden, Utah
Hi there! As a certified Neurofeedback Tech, I work with clients of all ages to train brain function toward healthier, more balanced patterns. This translates to improvement of focus, performance, emotional balance, sleep, and stress management. The best part is that neurofeedback training, like other “muscle memory” such as learning to ride a bike, has long-term lasting effects.
As someone who lives with complex chronic illness and chronic pain, I have first-hand understanding of the delicate, interconnected relationship between the mind (our intangible cognitive activity, feelings, and beliefs) and the brain (our physical system of bodily functions and responses). Put simply, the things we experience in one realm certainly affect the other. The work we do in neurofeedback brings more ease to your brain and nervous system, thus allowing you to maximize the hard work spent on your mind, heart, and soul within therapy and other wellness strategies.
My goal is to make this process comfortable, collaborative, and empowering. I take time to understand your unique needs and am with you every step of the way, monitoring and adjusting the training protocol to ensure steady progress. I also work closely with clinicians to coordinate care and offer additional support, community resources, and psychoeducation to clients.

Hey! I'm glad you're here. I am thrilled at the opportunity to work with you and be a part of your healing journey. As a clinical intern, I use my training in the most up-to-date research and approaches in psychotherapy to provide direct client care while working with a licensed supervisor to ensure every aspect of your treatment is effective, evidence-based, and tailored to suit your needs.
Throughout my life, I've always believed in the power of a listening ear and an understanding heart to bring healing and wholeness. From long talks with family members, to acting as a sounding board for friends, to being an advocate and mentor in the juvenile justice system, I have spent much of my life seeking to care for others. As your therapist, I will guide you, support you, and cheer you on as you work on becoming your best self.
My specialties include working with at-risk youth, couples seeking to improve their relationships, and anyone who desires a change in their life.
