About Me

Emily Kitts, LMFT

Therapist 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 can help you create lasting change in your life. You don’t have to figure it out alone. Therapy can accelerate your progress, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.
