Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Being Well Abroad
Rochester, New York
Emily is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Emily co-founded Being Well Abroad in early 2023, an organization that provides training, consultation, and resources on best practices in supporting student mental health across global education experiences, an area of emerging great need and lacking specialized programming. Being Well Abroad has developed several courses and models, including The Pyramid of Support, for higher education administrators, faculty, and facilitators to better understand student mental health and effectively implement evidence-based structures and scaffolding for optimal safety and learning outcomes. Being Well Abroad has curated a book and curriculum guide for on-the-ground interventions non-mental health professionals can embed into programming pre-departure, in country, and upon return. They also provide customized workshops, consultation, and debriefing on student mental health, policy, and wellbeing for organizations. In addition, Being Well Abroad has developed a 90 minute asynchronous Student Mini Course to prepare students for time away, which populates an individualized Wellness Travel Plan.
