About Emily
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C in Maryland, LCSW in Virginia) with three years of experience working with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, eating issues, and depression. Emily Dove offers straightforward, practical support for people who feel overwhelmed or stuck and need help sorting through difficult feelings and decisions.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people recognize unhelpful patterns and build skills that fit into daily life. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than jargon. Conversations cover things like body image, codependency, communication problems, control issues, and challenges linked to attachment and dependent personality features.
Emily draws on cognitive and behavioral methods to address obsessive or compulsive behaviors and to reduce anxious thinking. She also works on coping skills for mood symptoms and on practical ways to handle relationship strain and family stress. Eating and food-related concerns are addressed with attention to thoughts, behaviors, and emotions around food.
Her manner is collaborative: she and the person in therapy set goals together and track what helps. Sessions emphasize skill-building that can be practiced between meetings. Progress is measured by changes in day-to-day functioning and reduced interference from symptoms.
Emily sees adults and conducts work in English. She does not accept international clients. Before booking, confirm the current session formats offered.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Emily uses cognitive and behavioral methods to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. These approaches break problems into clear steps and teach skills to reduce anxiety, obsessive behaviors, and mood symptoms.She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them, and to clarify values that guide practical action. These techniques are useful for relationship strain, body image concerns, and managing urges or compulsions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, and adjust strategies if something is not helping. That collaborative process guides session focus and homework between meetings.
