Welcome to Therapy by Demar

Hi, I’m Emma Demar, LCSW — That Trendy Therapist.

I’m so glad you found your way here. Looking for a therapist can feel overwhelming, and I truly appreciate you taking this step.

I offer warm, virtual therapy across New Jersey and New York from the comfort of your own home (or wherever you feel safe and cozy). Whether you’re navigating eating disorders, anxiety, postpartum challenges, self-confidence struggles, relationship patterns, depression, or a big life transition — I’m here to support you with real care and no judgment.

A Little About Me

I’m a licensed clinical social worker, author of the book The Truth Teller, podcast host, and former actress (yes, I was on Gossip Girl). I bring a relatable, modern approach to therapy and I even incorporate the Enneagram as a powerful tool to help clients gain deeper self-awareness and compassion for themselves and their patterns.

My style blends psychodynamic work (understanding the root of things), CBT, and DBT skills — always tailored to what feels most helpful for you.

What You Can Expect

  • A genuine, warm, and welcoming space where you feel truly seen and heard

  • Personalized support that meets you exactly where you are

  • Practical tools and deeper insights so you can create meaningful, lasting change

  • Virtual sessions that fit into your real life

Your future is still being written — and I’d love to help you shape it with more clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.
