About Emily
Emily Naranjo is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She also supports clients facing relationship concerns, career shifts, and major life changes. Emily practices in New York and brings seven years of clinical experience to her work.
Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She listens first, then helps people set clear goals. Sessions tend to be practical and focused on skills you can use between meetings.
Background and approach
Emily uses a mix of methods to match each person's needs. Emily draws on client-centered techniques to make conversations feel natural and respectful. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
When deeper patterns arise, she may bring in psychodynamic ideas to look at long-standing themes. In sessions she works on small, attainable steps - improving communication, managing worry, or planning career choices. She also addresses issues like ADHD-related challenges, body image, money stress, and workplace friction.
The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes. People often start by naming one reachable change. From there Emily helps develop a plan that fits day-to-day life.
Her style is warm, practical, and goal-oriented, aimed at helping people feel more confident and capable over time.
Approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting conversation so people feel heard and understood; it helps when someone needs space to talk through what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety and changing unhelpful habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. That team effort means adjustments can be made as progress unfolds and priorities change.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls work well for full conversations, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and text messaging is useful for ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into a busy life.
