About Emily
Emily Meyers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 16 years of clinical experience based in Missouri. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Emily also supports people facing addictions, grief, parenting strains, career stress, and issues related to ADHD and bipolar disorder.
Her practice combines straightforward talk therapy with body-aware and creative elements. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered methods to help people build practical skills. Sessions often include learning ways to manage overwhelming emotions and to reduce reactivity in day-to-day situations.
Emily commonly helps people who feel stuck after big life transitions, who struggle with chronic illness or unexplained symptoms, or who identify as highly sensitive. She pays attention to how past relational wounds and attachment patterns show up now, and she works with clients on boundaries, communication problems, and commitment or codependency struggles.
Her approach emphasizes pacing and practical tools. That can mean developing emotion regulation skills, practicing new ways to respond to triggers, or using creative exercises to access feelings that are hard to name. She also supports people dealing with body image, caregiving stress, and the fallout of divorce or separation.

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings are present. It helps people who feel stuck by clarifying what matters and building small steps toward those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches concrete skills for reducing anxiety, managing mood, and changing unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers specific tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication when emotions run high.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then try strategies that fit the person’s needs. Decisions about which methods to use are collaborative and can shift as progress is tracked.
The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions are more consistent. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and DBT techniques to remote sessions by sharing worksheets, practicing skills in real time, and using creative exercises that translate to a screen or phone.
