Emily McCall, LMHC

Emily McCall is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who focuses on helping adults move through hard moments. She speaks plainly and listens without judgment. Emily aims to be supportive and encouraging as people work toward clearer thinking and better daily functioning.

She has 29 years of experience helping people with depression, grief, bipolar disorder, anxiety, ADHD, and addiction. She also helps with relationship strain, intimacy issues, shame rooted in family of origin, co-dependency, and recovery from sexual or domestic abuse.

Her work blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts shape feelings and actions, with client-centered listening and motivational interviewing. Sessions mix talking with practical exercises and simple assignments to try between meetings. She sometimes uses short stories or parables to highlight new ways of thinking.

Emily and the person she is seeing create a clear plan together based on real goals. That plan guides sessions and the small steps taken outside of therapy. Progress is tracked and adjusted to match changing needs.

She practices in Indiana and offers multiple ways to connect, including video, phone, live chat, and text messaging. People who choose to work with her are invited to take an active role in shaping their care and the pace of change.

How Emily Uses Practical Approaches in Online Care

Emily draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is often used for anxiety, depression, mood shifts, and obsessive patterns. Client-Centered Therapy provides a supportive space where the person guides the topics while the therapist listens with acceptance and reflects what matters most. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change by clarifying values and building readiness one step at a time.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Emily will discuss goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what the person finds useful. The process is collaborative and paced to match energy and life demands.

Online sessions offer several practical benefits. Video calls let conversations feel more like in-person meetings. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simple to touch base between appointments or to use brief, focused support when needed. These options help fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other busy schedules.
