Emily Hottinger, PA-C

Emily Hottinger, PA-C is dedicated to helping individuals overcome barriers to mental health care and take meaningful steps toward improved emotional and physical well-being through online and in-person visits.

I believe mental wellness is a journey, and I’m here to support people every step of the way. As a licensed and board-certified Physician Associate, I am committed to providing care that is respectful, judgment-free, and tailored to each individual. My professional philosophy centers on collaboration, empathy, and creating a safe space where people feel heard, supported, and empowered to take an active role in their well-being.

I earned my Master of Science in PA Studies from Dominican University and a Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. During my PA training, I completed a focused rotation in psychiatry, gaining hands-on experience supporting individuals with mental health challenges. These experiences helped me develop a strong …understanding of clinical workflows, patient care, and the importance of a holistic approach to mental health.

I strive to provide care that combines evidence-based practices with empathy and active listening. I aim to build strong therapeutic relationships by partnering with individuals, encouraging open communication, and creating individualized plans that reflect their unique needs, values, and goals.

I recognize that seeking support for mental health can be difficult, and I am committed to making that process as comfortable and empowering as possible. It is an honor to work alongside individuals on their journey toward improved emotional, psychological, and social well-being. I look forward to helping each person achieve their personal goals in a safe and nurturing environment.
