Emily Burden, LCSW

Country: USA
State: Nevada

As a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), I’m deeply passionate about supporting individuals on their unique paths to wellness. My own journey has been shaped by moments of struggle and triumph, which fuel my commitment to helping others find clarity, resilience, and fulfillment.

My clients often come to me struggling with feeling like an outsider, struggling to “fit in” or live up to expectations – both their own and those from external sources (family, work, society). I specialize in addressing issues related to fear, avoidance, negative self-evaluation, shame, and feeling “stuck”, which can show up as anxiety, stress, depression, and/or post-traumatic stress. I use genuine positive regard, compassion, and gentle curiosity to help you feel comfortable and safe.

I draw from evidence-based modalities such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), and I’ve completed advanced training in both. Using these modalities, I help clients cultivate openness and flexibility, and engage with their values to connect with what matters most to them. I’m deeply passionate about supporting individuals on their unique paths to wellness. I offer lived experience as a person who has struggled with anxiety and trauma, which fuels my commitment to helping others find clarity, resilience, and fulfillment. My aim is to empower you on your journey towards sustainable growth and transformation. Living a life in which you feel more connected, present, and actively engaged in making choices linked to your values. Whether you’re grappling with past trauma, navigating difficult emotions, or feeling stuck overcoming expectations, I’m here to help you overcome whatever’s been holding you back.
