About Emily
Emily Wiley is a licensed independent social worker (LISW) practicing in Ohio. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. Her work centers on building practical coping skills and clearer self-understanding.
She aims to help people take small steps toward steadier emotional balance. With three years of experience, she supports those facing relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, and work-related stress. She also addresses eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, low self-esteem, and challenges related to bipolar disorder and compassion fatigue.
How Emily works
Emily pays attention to attachment concerns, abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, and communication or commitment struggles. Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people process painful memories and form healthier ways of relating. Sessions focus on learning tools, practicing new communication habits, and exploring patterns that keep people stuck.
She uses straightforward language and step-by-step plans so clients can apply what they learn between visits. Emily also works with people facing intellectual disability, autism and Asperger syndrome, avoidant personality traits, impulsivity, isolation, and questions about life purpose. She includes support for veteran and armed forces issues when relevant to the person's story.
The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. People can expect a warm, direct style that balances emotional support with actionable strategies. Emily aims to help clients regain a sense of control, increase resilience, and move toward clearer goals over time.

Online support options
How evidence-based techniques translate online
Emily draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people process painful memories and develop healthier habits. One approach focuses on processing past experiences and reducing their hold on daily life, helping with trauma, grief, and longstanding relationship wounds. Another approach centers on teaching concrete coping skills for anxiety, stress, sleeping problems, and mood swings so people can try new tools right away.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and day-to-day limits, then try methods that fit those needs. Together they’ll track what helps and adjust the plan as work progresses, so the methods match the person rather than the other way around.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face work and skill practice, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat works well for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity when schedules change.
