About Emily
Emily McClure greets people with a calm, straightforward approach. She is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Ohio. Emily aims to make first conversations feel easier and less intimidating for someone seeking help.
She draws on nine years of experience in community settings and mentoring other clinicians. Emily focuses on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also helps with relationship strain, parenting concerns, career stress, compassion fatigue, and patterns like codependency or control issues.
Emily uses practical methods that encourage action and clarity. She mixes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to match each person’s needs. In sessions she listens first, then helps set small, achievable goals and tracks progress together.
Trauma awareness is part of her work, and she pays attention to how past events can affect current behavior and family interactions. Emily also makes space for faith when clients prefer faith-informed conversations, while respecting each person's beliefs.
She asks people to build on strengths they already have and to try small changes that add up over time. The process is collaborative and practical, with feedback and encouragement along the way. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking, and note that services are provided only to people residing in Ohio.
How therapy methods translate to online work
Emily commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in ways that fit online sessions. ACT focuses on clarifying values and committing to small actions that match those values, which can help with life transitions and motivation. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and depressive patterns.Therapy should be a collaborative effort to find what works best. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust methods based on needs and preferences. This helps ensure the chosen strategies feel useful and realistic for each person's routine.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to keep continuity during life changes, helping people practice new skills between meetings without rearranging their whole schedule.
