About Me
My name is Emmie Perry and I am so grateful for the opportunity to share my life’s mission with you. Soul Shine is a safe and contained space for clients to connect back to themselves, integrate their life experiences, and shine from within. As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I received a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2015 from the California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University. I then moved to Colorado to thrive in the magic of the mountains and continue the journey of serving children, adolescents, and adults. Prior to Soul Shine Therapy, I worked with youth and families in a non-profit, residential setting to heal from their experiences with trauma, increase their adaptive functioning, and ultimately reintegrate into their communities. I gained experience working with diverse populations, fostering safe and secure attachment, and increasing access to resiliency factors.
It is my belief that mental health is a key aspect of an intentional and joy-filled human experience. I work from a holistic, systemic, and strengths-based approach to guide clients in creating the life that they want while freeing themselves from the past. My framework incorporates tailored interventions for each client to connect to the depths of their soul, integrate their mind and body, and maximize their potential to shine. I specialize in working with adults and adolescents who are facing challenges from anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relational problems, trauma, and PTSD. I have extensive experience and advanced training in working with the effects of various types of trauma - I am a certified Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) therapist, an EMDRIA Approved EMDR consultant, and an EMDRIA Approved Training Provider.
I welcome clients who strive for inner peace and value doing the work. Thank you for considering me to guide you to connect, integrate, and shine!
Soul Shine Services
With You Every Step of the Way
Individual Therapy
I incorporate Polyvagal Theory, Attachment Theory, Mindfulness, and Client-Centered Therapy in my work at Soul Shine. I prioritize the creation of a safe and secure relationship with clients in order to enhance their ability to create a deep and meaningful evolution of their daily life and relationships.
Trauma Therapy
As my primary treatment modality, I utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to guide clients through "digesting" traumatic memories and strengthening internal resources. EMDR is an evidenced-based and transformational form of psychotherapy that taps into behavioral, cognitive, emotional, and somatic healing. EMDR can also be used to decrease symptoms of anxiety and depression, process grief and loss, extinguish maladaptive coping strategies, and enhance self-efficacy.

Scheduling & Payment FAQs
Do you offer a consultation?
Yes! I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to assure that I am a good fit for you before an initial therapy session. We will discuss your treatment needs as well as a general treatment overview of Soul Shine services.
What are the fees?
$175.00 per 50-minute session.
Longer sessions are prorated according to the standard 50-minute rate.
How does payment work?
Payment is due at time of service. I accept cash, check, or credit card. With credit card payments, clients will be automatically charged through the secure client portal after each session. I do not accept insurance at this time to maintain the highest confidentiality of the client and freedom in treatment. I am happy to generate a monthly invoice, or super bill, for you to provide to your insurance for reimbursement. Please check with your insurance to make sure you have out-of-network benefits.
How does scheduling, rescheduling, and cancellation work?
Please fill out the contact form below. I will then follow-up with you to schedule a phone consultation. If we agree to work together, I will then use email and/or phone to schedule all future sessions.
If you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, please do so at least 24 hours in advance of the scheduled time. Rescheduling or cancellations made with less than 24 hours notice will be charged in full for the missed session, as is outlined in the intake paperwork.
Where are sessions held?
Sessions are offered in person in Denver, CO. I have increased availability online with secure and HIPPA-compliant telehealth sessions for clients throughout Colorado.
How long is each therapy session?
I provide 50-minute individual sessions weekly or biweekly. Extended sessions or more frequent sessions are offered upon request.
*Please note that contact through this website or through a phone consultation does not establish a professional relationship. A professional relationship is only established once intake paperwork is completed and signed. For any mental health emergency, please go to your nearest emergency room or contact 911.
