About Emily

Emily Hand is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee. She offers calm, direct support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, relationship strain, sleep trouble, or life changes. Her aim is to help clients notice small shifts that make daily life more manageable.

Emily uses a collaborative, curious style in sessions. She listens first and tailors the work to each person’s needs. She avoids stigmatizing labels and focuses on building strengths and coping skills.

Background and approach

Her background includes focused work with substance and behavioral addictions along with many years helping people recover from physical trauma and emotional abuse. She also supports clients managing depression, grief, parenting challenges, anger, and attention concerns such as ADHD. Emily draws from several practical approaches to meet a client's goals.

She blends Attachment-Based therapy ideas with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, mindfulness practices, and client-centered conversation when those methods fit the situation. In sessions she helps people sort through painful memories, learn new ways to respond to stress, and build daily routines that improve sleep and mood.

Emily frames therapy as a partnership where curiosity and steady effort lead to better coping and more satisfying relationships.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Emily draws on Attachment-Based therapy to look at how early and current connections shape patterns in relationships and emotional responses. This approach helps people understand why they react a certain way to closeness and trust issues and supports building safer relational habits.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, which focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that line up with personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is another common tool she uses to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that fuel anxiety, depression, or sleep problems.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Emily will work with each person to try methods that match their goals and comfort level, adjusting the plan as progress is made. The first sessions generally focus on what matters most and what feels doable.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people work face to face when schedules allow. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, short coaching, or when someone prefers written conversation. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or treatment routines.
