Emily Dillon, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi, I'm Emily Dillon, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing virtual therapy to adults throughout California. I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma and childhood wounds, navigate anxiety and burnout, and build a healthier relationship with chronic pain and mind-body symptoms. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that symptoms often make sense in the context of our life experiences. Together, we'll explore the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop practical tools for managing distress, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. I integrate evidence-based approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, somatic interventions, and Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), tailoring treatment to your unique needs and goals. Many of the clients I work with are high-achieving, caring, and capable people who find themselves overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from themselves despite outward success. Therapy can provide a space to slow down, better understand what you're carrying, and move toward a life that feels more aligned, authentic, and fulfilling. I strive to create a supportive, affirming environment where you feel seen, understood, and empowered in your healing journey. I welcome adults from diverse backgrounds and am LGBTQIA+ affirming, sex positive, and committed to culturally responsive care. I know taking the first step can feel overwhelming, and I would be honored to support you in that process.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I provide a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore challenges, build insight, and create meaningful change. I specialize in helping adults navigate trauma, anxiety, burnout, chronic pain, and the lasting impact of difficult life experiences. My approach combines evidence-based therapy with mindfulness and somatic techniques, helping clients better understand both their thoughts and their nervous system. Together, we'll work toward healing, greater self-compassion, and a life that feels more aligned with your values and goals.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Our first few sessions focus on getting to know you, understanding your concerns, and identifying what you hope to gain from therapy. We'll explore your history, current challenges, strengths, and goals while building a foundation of safety and trust. From there, we create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. Therapy may include processing past experiences, developing practical coping strategies, strengthening the mind-body connection, and practicing new ways of responding to stress. My goal is to help you not only feel better, but also build lasting skills and insight that support long-term growth and healing.
