About Emily
Emily Hunt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California who centers therapy on relationships and connection. She emphasizes a collaborative, human approach that helps people manage stress and anxiety and navigate relationship and parenting concerns. She uses clear, practical methods to support mood changes, grief, trauma, and everyday struggles.
Emily draws from attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds shape current patterns. She also uses client-centered listening to make space for each person’s story and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
These tools are mixed to fit what a person wants to focus on in sessions. In practice she pays attention to how communication, trust, and emotional needs show up in relationships and in self-view. She helps people work through jealousy, commitment worries, body image concerns, and family of origin issues.
She also supports those struggling with guilt, shame, or feeling empty or stuck. Sessions can address compassion fatigue, anger, and coping with life changes in plain, straightforward terms. Emily values pacing work to match each person’s readiness and goals.
Her style is warm and down-to-earth, with an emphasis on listening first. Emily has five years of clinical experience and holds a California LCSW credential. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.
How Emily’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Emily combines attachment-based work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people understand patterns and change daily habits. Attachment-based approaches look at how early relationships shape current reactions and help with intimacy-related issues, trust, and family of origin concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and mood symptoms.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Emily will talk with you about your goals and preferences, then recommend and try methods that fit your needs. She adjusts pacing and techniques based on what is helpful in the moment so the plan evolves as you do.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility around work, childcare, and busy days. Video lets you see facial cues and practice communication skills, phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports steady processing between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life while working on anxiety, relationships, grief, and other concerns.
