About Emily
Emily Cyburt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy issues, anger, depression, and major life changes. Emily commonly supports those dealing with attachment struggles, codependency, communication problems, and challenges around commitment or separation.
Emily has worked in outpatient mental health since 2013 and has been licensed in Pennsylvania since 2019. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Science in Community Counseling. Over her 12 years in the field she has focused on practical skills that people can use between sessions.
Her approach is straightforward and non-Christian based. Sessions emphasize honest conversation and practical steps. Emily blends client-centered listening with cognitive work and solution-focused planning to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
In sessions she will often reflect what she hears, teach coping exercises, and suggest short practice tasks to build new habits. She uses emotionally-focused ideas when relationships and attachment come up, aiming to improve communication and closeness where possible.
Emily asks for commitment to the process and for work outside appointments when needed. She does not treat trauma, eating disorders, addiction, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or perinatal mood concerns. If someone needs a different kind of care she will help clarify that and suggest next steps.
How Emily’s approaches translate to online care
Emily uses client-centered listening and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Client-centered therapy means the person does most of the talking while the therapist reflects and clarifies. This helps when people need to be heard and to better understand their own feelings. CBT focuses on changing thinking patterns and building coping skills through exercises in sessions and practice between sessions. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Emily will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they set simple, measurable goals and try techniques to see what helps in daily life.
Confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and support regular check-ins. Some formats also allow shorter or more flexible check-ins when time is limited, while video-based work lets the therapist observe nonverbal cues during emotionally-focused conversations.
