You can learn how to thrive again.


When you don't know how to process emotions you might blow up, shut down, or avoid your emotions through things like food, alcohol, TV, or gaming. If emotions are getting in the way of you living your life, don't give up! 

By the end of this course you’ll have the confidence and skills to work through any emotions that come your way. You’ll learn how to slow down, think clearly, and make choices that make your life better. 

Instead of getting overwhelmed, blowing up or trying to control or merely cope with your emotions and learn to actually resolve them. Enroll today!

What you'll learn:

Doris started singing and laughing again for the first time in years:


"Your (course) on Processing Emotions is having a profound effect on my life. Quick examples: This morning I caught myself singing- it’s been years.

I have been laughing again! My thoughts are less likely to be dark and sad when using the information you teach. No longer trying to live on just “Hope”. I have added “Action” and what a difference it has made.

Thank you for making these videos available to me. I sing their praises to all family or friends who could benefit from watching them!!" -Doris Kjellevold

"This has been a phenomenal experience! I'm more in control of my emotions and more honest about my feelings and thoughts towards my emotions.

Meet your Instructor

Hi, I'm Emma McAdam


I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I love helping people change. I know that understanding mental health can be confusing and stressful. I also know that there’s hope! Your brain is wired to change, and deep healing is possible. My mission is to walk with people through that process. 

I make mental health skills more accessible through YouTube videos and online courses. Therapy in a Nutshell is built around the idea that small and simple steps can turn into massive change and growth. I don’t just help people get feeling better; I help people get better at feeling. 

I’ve been working in the field of change and growth since 2004. I got my Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Utah State University, and I’m currently licensed in the state of Utah. I’ve worked in settings like juvenile corrections, wilderness therapy programs, residential treatment centers, and outpatient therapy.
