Emily Radford (they/them)

Hi there! I’m Em, and I’m a queer, non-binary, neurodivergent Psychologist. I have an Honours Bachelor’s degree in both Psychology and Gender and Sexuality Studies. I’m originally from the United States, and mountains will always feel like home.

Some of my special interests (or SPINs) include:

  • Psychology (specifically neurodivergent brains, OCD, EMDR, and burnout)

  • Greyhounds (but never the racing of them)

  • Chronic illness / disability advocacy (particularly the ongoing COVID pandemic, and viral illness safety)

  • Hyperfocusing on books and media (Heated Rivalry!)

  • Caring for my many plants

Queenie the dog Radford (she/her)

Queenie is Em’s rescue greyhound, and the absolute light of their life. She’s the silliest little goose, and she brings endless joy to those around her. She provides informal therapy support by staring at Em until they complete all their admin tasks and emails. One of the reasons Em works via telehealth is so they can spend more time with Queenie.

Her special interests (SPINs) include:

  • Doing zoomies in the backyard

  • Bird and possum watching

  • Roaching (lying on her back with her legs in the air, oftentimes in awkward looking positions)

  • Prioritizing rest (she sleeps about 20 hours a day)

  • Laying on heated blankets
