About Emily

Emily McCall is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Indiana who focuses on supporting adults through a wide range of challenges.

Background and approach

With 29 years of clinical experience, she brings a steady, nonjudgmental presence to work on issues including addiction, depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and parenting struggles. Her practice also addresses related areas such as codependency, family of origin patterns, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, panic, and substance use concerns.

Emily blends evidence-informed strategies with a warm, client-centered stance, emphasizing respect and acceptance while encouraging practical change. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to examine how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact, and she complements that work with client-centered methods and motivational interviewing tools to support readiness for change.

In sessions she may use experiential exercises, teaching moments, parables, and between-session practice to help clients translate insights into daily life. Clients who choose to work with her collaborate on a clear treatment plan grounded in their goals, and she aims to guide each step with encouragement and realistic skills-building.

Services are offered to adults in Indiana who are seeking a compassionate, experienced clinician to help navigate life transitions and mental health concerns.

How Emily’s Approaches Work Online



Emily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop concrete strategies to change behaviors and emotional reactions; this approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, and mood-related difficulties. She also practices Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes a respectful, empathic relationship where the client’s own goals and insights guide the pace of work, supporting people who need acceptance and collaborative problem solving. Motivational Interviewing is used when readiness or ambivalence about change is a barrier, offering a focused, nonconfrontational way to explore values and boost internal motivation.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the therapeutic process, and Emily works collaboratively with each person to tailor approaches to their needs, goals, and preferences. She discusses options, adjusts techniques based on what helps most, and partners with clients to create a treatment plan that feels actionable and realistic.

Online therapy with Emily is offered through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to maintain continuity during transitions. These options allow for flexible scheduling, consistent follow-up, and a range of communication styles so clients can choose what works best for them.
