About Emily
Emily McClure is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPC) and an Ohio LPCC with nine years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, parenting pressures, and life changes. Emily also lists codependency, control issues, impulsivity, and isolation as focused concerns she addresses.
She takes a person-centered approach that begins by listening. Sessions are practical and goal-focused. Emily uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to help people try new behaviors and thoughts.
In session she helps clients break down big problems into small steps. That can mean practicing a thought record, testing a new boundary, or choosing one small action to change daily routine. She pays attention to how stress, trauma, and caregiving can wear people down and looks for realistic ways to reduce overload.
Emily also mentors other clinicians and brings that supervisory perspective to her work with clients. She is open to faith-informed conversations when requested and will respect each person's beliefs without imposing them.
She is licensed only in Ohio and offers services to people residing there. Sessions are conducted in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment through the online booking flow.
How sessions work
How Emily uses ACT and CBT in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values so people can act toward what matters despite hard feelings. It can help with ongoing anxiety, low self-worth, and patterns like people-pleasing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and uses practical exercises, such as tracking thoughts and testing beliefs, to reduce distress and change unhelpful habits. Motivational interviewing supports readiness to change by clarifying goals and drawing out a person’s own reasons for acting differently.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Emily will collaborate with each person to decide which tools to use based on goals, current struggles, and what feels workable. That may mean blending ACT and CBT strategies or focusing on short-term solution work to stabilize a problem before moving into deeper patterns like codependency or trauma responses.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a daily routine, cut travel time, and allow short check-ins when a full session isn’t possible. Therapists often adapt exercises for phone or video so practical work - home practice, behavior experiments, and brief coaching - can fit into a busy life.
