About Emily

Emily Myers is an Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 14 years in the counseling field and more than 20 years working in helping roles and customer service. She earned a Master’s in Community Counseling from Youngstown State University in 2009, graduating summa cum laude, after completing a Bachelor’s in Early Childhood Education and time teaching preschool.

Her work covers stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, addictions, trauma and abuse, and a wide range of related issues. She also focuses on topics such as adoption and foster care, blended family issues, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, and body image concerns. The biography lists LGBT concerns, eating and food-related issues, anger, and self-esteem among other areas she addresses.

Emily takes a client-driven and practical approach. Sessions begin with what the person wants to work on that day. She draws mainly from client-centered methods, solution-focused techniques, and cognitive behavioral ideas to help people make changes in daily life.

Her background includes roles across settings that addressed depression, anxiety, substance use, and children and family-centered services. This variety informs a flexible style that adapts to each person’s goals and priorities. She aims to help adults who are managing family strain, parenting pressures, or personal struggles.

People looking for an Ohio LPCC with experience in family and parenting concerns may find her approach straightforward and practical. Interested individuals should confirm current session options before scheduling a first visit.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Emily commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and following what the person brings to the session. It helps with relationship strain, parenting worries, and emotional processing by prioritizing the person’s priorities and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical tools to change them. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, and managing addictive behaviors.

She treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. During early sessions she will talk with the person about goals, try different techniques, and adjust methods based on how helpful they feel. The choice of techniques is guided by the person’s needs and preferences rather than a fixed method.

Confirm current session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy home life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during the day, or avoid the need to be on camera for every session depending on what the therapist and client agree will work best. Many people find this flexibility helps keep therapy practical alongside family and parenting responsibilities.
