About Emily

Emily Hill is a licensed clinical social worker based in New York who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and self-esteem issues.

Background and approach

With 28 years of practice, she brings long experience supporting clients through life transitions and offering practical tools to improve communication, decision-making, and coping skills. Her work includes attention to adoption and foster care dynamics, caregiver stress, intellectual and developmental differences, and struggles with isolation or feelings of emptiness.

Emily favors evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused strategies, and trauma-focused approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs. She emphasizes goal-directed work that sets clear steps and time frames for progress while remaining attentive to each client’s values and personal story.

Sessions aim to build concrete skills for emotion regulation, problem solving, and healthier patterns in relationships and parenting. Clients can expect a respectful, compassionate atmosphere where practical tools and individualized plans are used to foster growth, resilience, and renewed hope.

Emily supports people who are ready to take steps toward clearer purpose, improved wellbeing, and more satisfying connections in life.

Approach-Focused Online Therapy Options

Emily integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy into online work in ways that translate well to remote formats. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them through practical exercises to reduce anxiety and improve coping with stress. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing distressing experiences and building safety and regulation skills to relieve symptoms of past harms and improve daily functioning.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the presenting concerns with each client to determine whether CBT, trauma-focused work, or a solution-focused emphasis best meets their needs, and will adjust the plan over time as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and allow for ongoing skill practice between sessions under the guidance of a licensed professional.
