Emily Newland, LCSW —
A therapist who believes
every heart deserves to thrive.
Emily is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Utah specializing in trauma, perinatal mental health, and the complex emotional experiences that come with navigating medical family stress. She is EMDR-trained and uses an integrative approach tailored to each individual.
Her clients describe her as warm, direct, and deeply attentive — someone who helps you understand the why behind what you're feeling, not just manage the symptoms.
Therapy that meets you exactly where you are.
Emily uses an integrative approach — drawing from multiple evidence-based modalities depending on what each client needs. There's no one-size-fits-all formula. Every treatment plan starts with listening.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing — a powerful, research-backed approach to processing traumatic memories and breaking patterns rooted in past experiences.
Trauma-Informed CBT
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy adapted for trauma survivors — helping you identify and restructure thought patterns that no longer serve you without retraumatizing you in the process.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Exploring how early relationships and experiences shape how you connect with yourself and others — and healing those patterns in a safe, consistent therapeutic relationship.
ACT
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy — helping you live a full, meaningful life even in the presence of pain, uncertainty, or difficult emotions you can't always control.
Grief Therapy
Specialized support for ambiguous loss, anticipatory grief, and the kinds of grief that don't have a clear name — including the grief that comes with medical family stress.
