Emily Moley, LMHC

Emily Moley is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York who brings a decade-plus of clinical experience working with individuals and families facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma, substance use, and mood disorders. She earned a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from St. John Fisher College in Rochester, NY in May 2011 and went on to practice as a primary therapist in an outpatient mental health clinic, supporting men, women, and teenagers with conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.

Emily became a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York in 2014 and later facilitated a group for people with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, which helped shape a significant portion of her clinical focus. In February 2015 she joined the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision to provide mental health and substance abuse treatment services to incarcerated individuals. After almost six years in that role, she gained a deep appreciation for how trauma and abuse can influence issues of abandonment, trust, guilt, shame, family dynamics, and parenting.

Her therapeutic approach is rooted in the belief that clients already hold many of the answers to their challenges. Rather than directing clients, Emily creates a respectful, supportive environment that helps people uncover solutions, identify strengths, and develop healthier coping skills. She emphasizes working through discomfort as a necessary part of growth and aims to help clients build practical strategies to replace patterns that no longer serve them. Emily looks forward to supporting clients on a thoughtful path toward self-discovery and lasting change.
