Emma Timmins, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Orange County, working with clients across California via telehealth. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Tennessee. I specialize in supporting children, adolescents, and young adults who have experienced trauma, anxiety, and depression. I utilize Motivational Interviewing techniques to engage clients and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to foster lasting change. My approach While every client is unique, I most frequently use Motivational Interviewing and CBT to help clients achieve their goals. I am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and strongly believe in trauma-informed care. In my work with children and families, I apply Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) principles to support caregivers and strengthen family relationships through the lens of attachment. My focus I am passionate about supporting the next generation—whether young adults, children, adolescents, or their caregivers. I work with clients to process past trauma, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and develop healthy coping skills to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and relationships. My communication style I use warm, empathic, and active listening to create a safe environment for clients. I balance validating their feelings while encouraging them to view difficulties from new perspectives or take on new challenges. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist because it combines my passions and strengths. I love creating space to listen and help those in need. I believe healthy families are the foundation of healthy communities and feel called to support the next generation. My goals for you As a social worker, I value self-determination and collaborate closely with clients to help them achieve their goals.
