About Emily

Emily Salkever-Scott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) who brings seven years of clinical experience to her work. She uses a trauma-informed, person-centered stance and focuses on helping people move forward in ways that match their goals. Her style is hopeful and practical, aimed at clear steps clients can take between sessions.

Emily draws on several evidence-based methods to meet the moment. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She incorporates dialectical behavior strategies for emotion regulation and acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take committed action.

Her practice covers a broad range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief and loss, anger, addictions, and coping with life changes. She also supports people facing relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, career stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Coping with natural or human-caused disaster is listed among her focus areas.

Emily takes a collaborative, client-centered approach. Sessions are shaped by what the person wants to get from therapy, and she offers practical tools to try between meetings. She emphasizes building trust and safety while helping clients set realistic goals.

Emily works from New Hampshire and communicates in English. She welcomes international clients and uses a subscription-based session model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability.

How Emily’s approaches translate to online work

Emily often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take practical steps toward those values. ACT focuses on actions and accepting difficult thoughts so they interfere less with life. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and to build healthier connection skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts strategies over time and checks in about what is and isn’t helping so the plan stays useful.

The therapist’s bio does not specify which online session formats she uses, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people meet from a location that works for them. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and attachment-focused interventions to remote sessions by using worksheets, skill practice, and guided conversation to support progress.
