About Emily

Emily Collings is a licensed counselor who centers the therapy relationship on each person’s values and identity. She brings a respectful, nonjudgmental presence and focuses on helping people live in ways that match what matters to them. Emily emphasizes compassion and practical steps over shame or blame.

She uses acceptance and commitment ideas alongside client-centered listening to help with depression, anxiety, grief, and disordered eating. Sessions often include mindfulness, self-compassion work, and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when helpful. Emily also draws on existential questions and expressive approaches to help people find meaning amid change.

Her background includes four years of clinical experience and licensure as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania and Nevada. Emily names neurodiversity affirmation, LGBTQ and gender-affirming practice, fat acceptance, and disability justice as guiding lenses for her work. She aims to reduce the effects of external and internalized oppression on wellbeing.

In session Emily listens for what matters most to each person and helps set clear, manageable steps toward those values. She may introduce mindfulness exercises, grounding techniques, or emotion regulation skills to reduce distress and build coping. The focus is on practical changes that fit daily life.

People seek Emily’s help for issues including depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, addiction, caregiver stress, body image and eating struggles, ADHD, and complicated grief. She supports work on attachment, abandonment, chronic health challenges, and fertility-related stress as well.

Approaches that guide online work and recovery

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice painful thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters to them. It emphasizes values-based action and practical exercises to reduce avoidance. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, with the therapist offering attentive listening and empathy to support self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavior changes to reduce symptoms and improve mood.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy itself. Emily will collaborate with each person to test which methods feel useful, adjust techniques, and set goals based on individual needs and preferences. That process is shared and iterative rather than fixed from the start.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, require less travel, and allow shorter check-ins if needed. It can also make using mindfulness exercises, worksheets, or skills coaching more practical between meetings. Licensed professionals adapt tools and homework so therapy connects with everyday routines and supports steady progress.
