About Emily
Emily Meyers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 16 years of clinical experience based in Missouri. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and relationship or family concerns. She also supports those facing chronic illness, caregiving strain, parenting challenges, and work-related or career stress.
Her approach blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), client-centered work, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Sessions often focus on recognizing emotional patterns and how they show up in the body. Emily uses talk-based methods alongside expressive practices and mindfulness to address difficult feelings and reactions.
She works with people who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, overwhelm, or shutdown. She also supports those navigating attachment wounds, abandonment concerns, codependency, and communication challenges. Emily helps clients build practical tools for emotion regulation and coping with life changes.
Her background includes work with addiction, bipolar disorder, ADHD, disordered eating, and compassion fatigue. She also lists focus areas such as chronic pain, cancer caregiving, dissociation, and divorce and separation. Sessions aim to name what’s happening, practice new responses, and strengthen coping skills.
Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Emily integrates EFT and skills work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming emotions and the interaction patterns they create. It is often used when people want to understand how emotional responses affect relationships and personal patterns.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting so the person feels heard and can explore their own solutions. This approach supports people who need time to clarify goals and build confidence.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Emily will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision is revisited as therapy progresses so methods can change when necessary.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. If a client prefers mindfulness practices, expressive exercises, or skills training, those elements can be included in sessions once the format is confirmed during intake.
