    About Emily

    Emily Evans is a licensed clinical social worker who uses a client-centered approach to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and related concerns. She draws on Motivational Interviewing to support change and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Emily speaks plainly and keeps sessions focused on practical next steps.

    She respects that each person knows their own story. Sessions aim to build on strengths and small successes. Emily helps people break down big problems into manageable actions and realistic goals.

    Her background includes five years of professional practice in Indiana. That experience has included work with people facing trauma, grief, mood and anxiety disorders, and difficulties like sleep or eating problems. She also addresses concerns such as ADHD, burnout and compassion fatigue, and issues around identity and intimacy.

    Emily blends mindfulness tools with solution-focused techniques to create short, usable practices for daily life. Therapy often involves trying simple skills between meetings and checking what helps. Her style is collaborative and grounding, with an emphasis on what the person wants to change.

    Taking the first step can feel hard, and Emily aims to make the process straightforward. She encourages people to name one small goal and then build from there. The work is paced to what feels doable for each person.

  2. How Emily's approaches translate to online care

    Emily often draws from Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change and from Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused on the person's priorities. Motivational Interviewing uses open questions and reflective listening to explore ambivalence and build motivation for change. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration so sessions feel respectful and focused on what matters to the person.

    She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thought that affect mood and behavior and to practice alternative responses. CBT offers concrete exercises and experiments that can be tried between meetings and reviewed together.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. The plan is adjusted over time based on what helps most, so therapy remains a joint effort.

    If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit meetings into a busy day, reduce travel time, and let them review practice exercises immediately after a session. Emily aims to make online work practical and focused on small, achievable changes.
