About Emily
Emily Moley is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family strains, trauma and abuse, mood and substance concerns, anger, ADHD, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Sessions focus on practical steps rather than labels or quick fixes.
Moley trained in mental health counseling at St. John Fisher College and earned a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling in 2011. Early clinical work in outpatient settings exposed her to anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and co-occurring substance use. That experience led to group work for co-occurring disorders and ongoing interest in addiction-related treatment.
She spent nearly six years providing mental health and substance abuse services within the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision. That period deepened her understanding of how trauma, abandonment, trust problems, guilt, shame, and family dynamics shape behavior and relationships.
In sessions she treats people as people, not diagnoses. She uses conversational, collaborative work to help clients find their own answers. Treatment emphasizes identifying strengths, learning coping skills, and shifting away from older habits that cause harm.
Her approach accepts that change can feel uncomfortable and that progress often happens during difficult moments. People who want straightforward, practical help with anger, relationship strain, substance use, or trauma-related issues will find a focus on usable tools and steady, clear guidance.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The therapist follows the client's lead and helps clarify goals, which can be useful for anger, relationship struggles, and self-esteem work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific skills to change patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, anger, and mood issues. Trauma-focused therapy looks at how past harm affects present behavior and teaches ways to manage triggers and build new coping strategies. Choosing the right approach is a team effort. She will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as work continues. The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session options before booking. Describe practical benefits: online work can make scheduling easier around work or family, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. It can also let a person continue care when life circumstances make in-person meetings difficult. Licensed professionals tailor sessions to fit daily life while focusing on tangible skills for managing anger, mood, and relationship strain.Areas of focus
