About Emily
Emily McClure is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPC, LPCC) based in Ohio who focuses on practical support for everyday struggles. She talks plainly about stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, depression, and life changes. Her style is warm and person-centered to help people feel heard and understood.
Emily draws on nine years of experience in community settings and supervision roles. She uses goal-oriented methods to help people make small, realistic changes that add up over time.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize clear steps and encouragement rather than jargon. Her approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques. That lets her tailor sessions to what a person needs most, whether problem-solving, shifting habits, or working through challenging feelings.
Trauma-informed care is part of how she frames difficult histories. Emily is open to integrating faith when a client wants that included, while also respecting different beliefs. She aims to help people use their existing strengths to move toward meaningful change in daily life and relationships.
She practices only with clients who reside in Ohio. Emily offers several remote session formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Emily often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. This approach can be useful for stress, parenting strain, and life changes that feel overwhelming.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and behaving. CBT is practical for anxiety, depression, and habit change because it breaks problems into manageable steps and experiments.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Emily will talk with each client about goals and preferences, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust over time based on what helps most. The plan evolves with client feedback and progress.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different needs. Video calls allow fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging helps people reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life while working toward clear, practical changes.
