About Emily
Emily Chavie is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with 19 years of clinical experience. She focuses on common life and mood challenges such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, stress, and relationship and intimacy concerns. Emily also addresses issues tied to trauma, addictions, grief, parenting strain, and codependency.
Her style is straightforward and practical. Sessions tend to involve talking through what’s happening now, learning skills to manage strong feelings, and trying new ways of relating to others. She draws on cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness skills to help people notice unhelpful patterns and make different choices.
Emily also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current connections. That can help when someone keeps prioritizing others, struggles to say no, or feels lost inside a relationship. She uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance when emotions feel overwhelming.
Her background includes a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy and long experience offering individual and group work. The LMFT credential is shown as FL LMFT. Sessions are conducted in English and she practices from a Florida license.
People who reach out often want clearer boundaries, fewer mood swings, or better tools for parenting and everyday stress. Emily collaborates with clients to set goals and practices concrete steps between sessions. To start, readers are asked to use the site’s matching process and schedule a first meeting.
How sessions work
How Emily’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing uncomfortable thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then acting on personal values. That helps when someone is avoiding conflict or losing sight of their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and rebuilding confidence. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape current responses; it can clarify why someone struggles with people-pleasing or difficulty setting boundaries.Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Emily will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts what they try based on what helps in real life rather than sticking to a single method.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Please confirm the session options available before booking so you know whether phone, video, or another format is used. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, or let someone avoid commuting. Therapists can also assign short between-session practices that fit into everyday life to support steady progress.
