About Emily
Emily Moley is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, addiction, relationship and parenting concerns, anger, trauma and abuse, and related problems such as impulsivity and low self-esteem.
She uses straightforward conversations to help people name the problems that keep repeating. Sessions focus on practical coping skills, building strengths, and understanding how past wounds influence current behavior. Emily emphasizes helping people move away from unhelpful patterns and toward ways of coping that actually work for them.
Emily earned a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from St. John Fisher College. Early in her career she worked in outpatient clinics with clients experiencing anxiety, bipolar disorder, and co-occurring substance use. That led to running group work for people with co-occurring disorders and later to roles providing mental health and substance abuse treatment in correctional settings.
Her time working in the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision gave her long experience seeing how trauma, abandonment, trust issues, guilt, shame, and family dynamics shape behavior. Those themes often appear when people struggle with anger, boundaries, or addictive patterns.
In sessions she describes the work plainly: she will help clients identify strengths, practice coping skills, and talk through choices rather than telling them what to do. The emphasis is on learning to respond differently to stress and relationships so old reactions stop causing the same harm.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building on a person's own goals. It helps when someone wants clearer thinking about choices and stronger personal coping. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behavior. It offers practical exercises to reduce anger, anxiety, or low mood by changing unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily will discuss options with each person and together decide which methods fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or make scheduling simpler when work or family routines are tight. Many people find remote sessions help them maintain consistency while working on anger, communication, and coping skills.
