About Emily
Emily Chavie is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with 19 years of experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression and bipolar disorder, as well as relationship and family concerns. She also addresses trauma and abuse, stress, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, and attention-deficit concerns.
Emily focuses on practical skills and clear steps people can try between sessions. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, and client-centered methods. Sessions look at thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that get in the way of daily functioning and relationships.
Her approach is direct and collaborative. She talks through current problems, identifies small experiments to change unhelpful habits, and checks how those changes work. The tone is straightforward and goal-oriented rather than abstract or overly technical.
Emily has worked across individual, group, couples, and family settings during her career. In practice she helps people sort through anger, low self-esteem, intimacy-related struggles, codependency, guilt and shame, and postpartum or pregnancy-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with life transitions, compassion fatigue, and issues around self-harm and self-love.
Practical matters such as cost use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and then a first session is scheduled using the site’s online options. Language of service is English and international clients are not accepted.
How CBT and Related Approaches Work Online
Emily regularly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize unhelpful thinking and try different responses. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change patterns that maintain anxiety, depression, and relationship conflict.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at relationship patterns and how early interaction styles affect current connections.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, test methods in short exercises, and adjust strategies based on what helps most. The plan can change as needs and preferences become clearer.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when helpful, or making scheduling more flexible around work and caregiving. Licensed professionals can use structured CBT worksheets, behavioral experiments, and goal tracking effectively in remote sessions, while adapting exercises to each person’s daily routine.
