Emily Kessler, LCSW
Your Well-Being Is In Good Hands
Feeling down or anxious? Maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery, and in my sessions I promote behavioral transformation by encouraging a positive outlook and the adoption of new attitudes and reactions. I have the tools and professional experience to help you get back on track.

Individual Psychotherapy
In individual therapy, I offer a safe and private space where you can openly explore any challenges you're facing, such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or life transitions. Together, we will work at your pace to understand your thoughts and feelings, develop practical coping skills, and set achievable goals to help you create meaningful change in your life. My approach is tailored to you, providing the tools and support you need to move forward with confidence and clarity.

Let's collaborate to achieve your professional aspirations. Please reach out to discuss options for clinical supervision.
