About Emily
Emily Chavie is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in Florida with 19 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and relationship strain. Emily also addresses anger, grief, addictions, and parenting concerns in straightforward, practical ways.
Emily favors clear, goal-oriented conversations over jargon. She listens first, and then helps people notice patterns that make life harder. Sessions include skill-building for managing intense feelings and steps to repair strained connections.
Background and approach
The emphasis is on small, doable changes that fit everyday life. Her work blends evidence-based strategies and relational understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with realistic ones.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete tools for emotion regulation when feelings feel overwhelming. Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about how early relationships shape current needs. Emily treats each person as the expert on their life.
She builds a plan with practical exercises, communication skills, and coping tools. Parents can get help with parenting stress and transitions such as pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum challenges. Those coping with trauma, bipolar disorder, or self-harm concerns receive focused care that aims to improve day-to-day functioning.
People describe her approach as warm, direct, and supportive. She tailors pacing and techniques to individual circumstances. Emily helps people find more stability, better relationships, and clearer next steps when life feels chaotic or stuck.

How evidence-based approaches translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values even when uncomfortable feelings are present. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions because it emphasizes action over getting stuck in worry. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns of thinking that fuel mood and behavior problems and replaces them with more helpful, realistic thoughts and actions. CBT is often used for depression, anxiety, and anger management.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean combining ACT values work with CBT skill practice and some attachment-focused conversation to repair relationships and build understanding.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and life demands. Video lets people work face to face from wherever they are, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief, ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep momentum and practice skills outside the therapy hour.
