Emily Keehn, LCSW

Emily Keehn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common and complex concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and family issues, and coping with life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps clients can use between meetings.

Emily describes her style as direct, calm, and collaborative. She uses evidence-informed methods to help people manage overwhelming feelings and improve everyday functioning. Meetings are focused on clear goals and small, usable skills rather than lengthy theory discussions.

She draws on several approaches to structure sessions, including cognitive and behavioral tools to change unhelpful patterns, acceptance-based methods to reduce struggle with difficult emotions, and mindfulness practices to build attention and self-regulation. The work often includes short exercises, behavioral experiments, and planning for real-world situations.

Emily pays attention to how health, caregiving, finances, and work pressures affect emotional wellbeing. She also helps with issues like chronic pain, caregiver stress, and problems that come up when major life transitions happen. Conversations aim to make day-to-day life more manageable and purposeful.
