Emily Chen
Welcome! I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I’m here to support individuals and couples who feel stuck, whether in painful relationship patterns, overwhelming emotions, or cycles that no longer serve them.
My approach is grounded in curiosity and compassion. In therapy, I focus on creating a space where you feel safe to explore what’s been weighing you down. I draw from emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), along with attachment and trauma-informed approaches to better understand how past experiences may be showing up in your life today. I also use inner-child work to help clients connect with and heal the parts of themselves that feel hurt or unseen.
I’ve worked with people facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress/burnout and complex trauma, as well as those struggling with relationship challenges like broken trust, conflict patterns, and communication issues. I also help clients navigate family dynamics that keep them feeling stuck and support them in finding new ways to connect and grow. I believe healing happens when you feel safe, supported, and understood. My goal is to create that space for you, where you can feel grounded and build the tools you need to create meaningful change in your life.
