Emily Kitts, LMFT

Psychotherapist serving the San Francisco Bay Area and California

Welcome! I’m Emily, a therapist who understands the pressures of demanding careers. Before becoming a therapist, I worked for major companies like Pepsi, Levi's, and Sprint, as well as in tech at a startup. I've seen firsthand the burnout, anxiety, and stress that come with chasing success.

After several years in user research, I returned to therapy because I missed the personal connections that help people like you find balance and fulfillment. My approach is simple: I create a safe, non-judgmental space where we can work together to tackle the challenges you’re facing—whether it’s stress, anxiety, or improving your sleep.

I believe in practical strategies and real-world results. Using proven techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment-based therapy, and mindfulness, I help you create lasting change, whether you’re managing career uncertainty, or looking for better sleep habits.
