About Emily

Emily McClure is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPC) and an Ohio LPCC with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are trying to handle stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and major life changes. Emily also helps people facing relationship strain, career pressure, parenting challenges, and issues like codependency or impulsivity.

Emily draws on practical, evidence-based methods rather than one fixed style. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused techniques. Sessions focus on concrete steps - noticing patterns, testing small changes, and tracking what helps in daily life.

Emily describes a person-centered approach that begins with listening. She aims to understand each person’s situation before suggesting strategies or tools. She also brings experience with trauma-informed care and acknowledges how trauma can affect day-to-day functioning and close relationships.

Her background includes work in multiple community settings and clinical supervision, where she mentors other counselors. Emily is open to integrating faith when clients request faith-based conversations and will respect individual beliefs while keeping goals practical and action oriented.

She provides services only to people who are located in Ohio. Sessions are held in English and the cost structure uses a cancellable subscription model. To start, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session using the online matching button.

How Emily uses ACT and CBT online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions. It focuses on choosing values-driven steps even when frustration or anger is present, and it can be useful for stress, relationship strain, and persistent resentment.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches skills to challenge unhelpful thinking and to practice different responses in everyday situations like work stress or flashpoints at home.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Emily will work with each person to decide which tools match their goals and preferences, adjusting methods across sessions as needed. She emphasizes small, practical practices you can try between appointments.

The therapist's practice notes do not list specific session formats here, so confirm the current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so clients can continue work or family routines. Licensed professionals commonly use these practical benefits to help keep progress consistent without promising particular outcomes.
