Emily Chavie

Emily Chavie is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 19 years of clinical experience in Florida. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and bipolar disorder, as well as relationship and family concerns. Emily helps clients manage grief, addictions, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes.

Her background includes a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and years of experience offering individual, group, couples, and family work. She draws from several practical approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Emily tailors sessions to each person’s situation and goals.

In sessions she aims to be caring, open minded, and empathic. Conversations focus on real problems and simple strategies people can try between meetings. She works collaboratively with clients to create manageable steps toward change.

Emily also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based ideas when they fit a client’s needs. These approaches inform how she helps people face difficult emotions, build healthier patterns, and clarify what matters most to them.

Parents read this as practical help for everyday life. Emily emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while helping people find hope and meaning. To begin, she builds a plan that matches each person’s unique challenges and preferences.

How Emily’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for life transitions and coping with persistent worries. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can ease anxiety and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling relationship conflicts.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs and then recommend approaches to try. That teamwork makes it easier to adjust methods as progress is made.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make attending sessions easier to fit into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and enable shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find it simpler to maintain continuity of care during life changes when they can schedule around work, school, or parenting demands. Licensed professionals will work with clients to shape session length and focus so therapy fits into everyday routines.
