About Emily
Emily Salkever-Scott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) who draws on seven years of clinical work. She uses a trauma-aware, person-centered stance and focuses on what each person wants from therapy. Her approach is practical and hopeful, aimed at helping people move forward from the problems that brought them here.
She blends several evidence-based methods to match the needs of each person.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns of behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are offered for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings feel overwhelming. Emily also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and commit to actions that matter.
Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about trust, closeness, and relationship patterns. Sessions are collaborative and shaped by the person’s goals rather than a fixed checklist. She has worked with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, anger, addiction, stress, and parenting strain.
Emily also supports people facing career transitions, identity or LGBT-related concerns, and longstanding trauma or attachment issues. Practical tools, skills practice, and real-world planning are regular parts of her work. Sessions are offered from New Hampshire and she communicates in English.
Emily accepts international clients and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. She aims to meet people where they are and help build steady, manageable progress.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Work
Emily commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which can be practiced between sessions and tracked during video or chat meetings. ACT helps people name their values and take small committed steps toward them, a process that fits well with goal-setting in remote therapy.She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at patterns of trust and closeness that affect current relationships. Those conversations translate well to phone or video work and can include exercises to notice interaction patterns and try different responses over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and then suggest methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as you notice what helps.
Online formats offer practical benefits for ongoing care. Video calls allow for face-to-face interaction and skill practice, phone sessions fit when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging support brief check-ins or between-session coaching. These options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives while focusing on concrete tools and steady progress.
