Emily Keehn

Emily Keehn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who focuses on helping adults manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. She brings four years of clinical experience to sessions and aims for clear, calm collaboration with each person she sees.

Her style is direct and steady. She emphasizes a strong working relationship and practical skills people can use between sessions. Sessions often include mindfulness and skills-based tools to help reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day coping.

Emily uses a mix of approaches to match what the person needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. These methods are applied in simple, concrete ways such as noticing patterns, trying small behavior changes, and practicing present-moment awareness.

People come to her for many concerns including grief, depression, addiction issues, relationship or family difficulties, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, and problems with anger or self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with career challenges, financial stress, and questions about life purpose.

In sessions she moves between listening, teaching practical tools, and helping clients set goals that fit their life. The focus is on realistic steps and steady progress rather than quick fixes. She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and helps people experiment with new ways of coping.

How Emily’s approaches translate to online work

Emily often uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people slow down and notice thoughts and body sensations in the moment. Mindfulness tools can help with anxiety, stress, chronic pain, and emotional reactivity by teaching simple attention practices and grounding exercises.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions toward a meaningful life even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. ACT is useful for grief, depression, and adjusting to major life changes.

Client-Centered Therapy is part of her work too, which means sessions include open listening, reflection, and support for the client’s own goals and pace. This helps build trust and keep the work focused on what matters to the person.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will talk through options with each person and adapt methods based on goals, needs, and what feels useful. That process may involve trying an approach for several sessions and adjusting as needed.

Confirm current session options before booking to learn which online formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, cut travel time, and maintain continuity during life transitions. Different approaches translate well to remote work through guided practices, homework between sessions, short check-ins, and skills coaching over video or audio depending on available session formats.
