About Emily

Emily Moley is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, addiction, and related challenges.

Background and approach

With a practical, strengths-focused style, she centers the client's experiences and helps uncover personal resources while teaching coping skills to replace unhelpful patterns. Her work also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment struggles, codependency, communication and control problems, impulsivity, and mood or post-traumatic stress concerns.

She trained at St. John Fisher College, earning a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling, and holds New York LMHC 006136.

Over 13 years she has worked in outpatient clinics and in correctional settings, providing individual and group treatment for people with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. That background shaped her trauma-informed perspective, particularly around family dynamics, trust, guilt, shame, and parenting challenges.

Therapy with Emily is collaborative and client-centered; she encourages self-discovery rather than prescribing solutions, and integrates evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral and trauma-focused techniques to help clients set concrete goals and develop practical strategies for everyday life.

How Emily's Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Emily integrates client-centered principles with cognitive behavioral and trauma-focused methods in remote sessions. Client-centered therapy centers the client's perspective and goals, offering empathy and reflective listening to help people explore values and strengths. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing concrete skills to manage anxiety, mood symptoms, impulsivity, and ADHD-related challenges. Trauma-focused therapy addresses the impact of past trauma on current functioning, using targeted interventions to process traumatic experiences and reduce trauma-related symptoms.

Choosing the right combination of approaches is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then tailors strategies so the work feels manageable and relevant. Clients are invited to give feedback as treatment progresses so adjustments can be made together.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing people to access care from home or other convenient locations. These formats make it easier to schedule regular sessions, practice skills between meetings, and maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change, while still working with licensed professionals to pursue therapy goals.
