Emily Myers, LPCC

Emily Myers is a licensed professional clinical counselor in Ohio. She brings 14 years of counseling experience and a long background in helping occupations to her work. She builds sessions around what each person wants to talk about and change.

Emily began her career after earning a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education from Youngstown State University. She returned to the same school for a Master of Science in Community Counseling, graduating in 2009 summa cum laude. Before counseling, she spent many years in customer service and preschool teaching, which shaped her practical, people-focused approach.

Over the past 14 years she has worked in settings that addressed depression, anxiety, substance use, and family-centered concerns. She describes her style as eclectic and client centered, drawing on techniques that fit the person in front of her. Sessions are driven by the client's priorities and what they want to work on that day.

Emily often uses cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of coping. She also incorporates mindfulness and narrative elements when useful to help people rewrite stressful stories and stay present.

People come to her for many reasons, including stress, relationships, parenting, addictions, trauma, and self-esteem struggles. Emily aims to create a straightforward, calm space where people can talk through problems and practice small changes that add up over time.

How Emily’s Approaches Fit Online Sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person in the room. It helps with emotional support, decision-making, and clarifying goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior to identify small changes that reduce worry, low mood, or unhelpful habits. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce rumination and increase calm in everyday moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily collaborates with each person to decide which combination of methods feels most useful. She adapts techniques over time based on progress, goals, and what a client prefers to try.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins can fit into a lunch break, and audio-only calls may use less bandwidth. Many people find remote sessions help them practice skills in real-life routines while keeping therapy time manageable.
