About Emily
Emily Salkever-Scott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with seven years of clinical experience based in New Hampshire. She works with adults on concerns that include anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, stress, and parenting challenges. Sessions focus on practical steps that match each person’s goals.
Her approach is trauma-informed and person-centered. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people recognize unhelpful patterns and make concrete changes. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are offered to manage intense emotions and improve distress tolerance.
Emily also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and build committed action. Attachment-based ideas are used when relationships and trust are central concerns. These methods are presented in plain language and practiced with simple exercises.
She has worked with a broad range of issues, including addictions, sleep problems, career stress, and parenting strain. She also supports people facing relationship and intimacy-related questions, body image concerns, and adjustment after major life changes. Her background includes work with diverse identity and cultural issues.
Sessions start by identifying what the client wants to change. From there she offers tools, skills, and steps that fit daily life. People often leave sessions with an action to try between meetings and a short way to measure progress.
Appointments and session structure are arranged through the site's booking process. International clients may be accepted; confirm current session options before scheduling.
How sessions work
How Emily’s approaches translate to online sessions
Emily uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify patterns in thoughts and behaviors and then practice alternative responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress-related issues because it breaks problems into concrete steps.She also offers dialectical behavior therapy skills to build emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance. DBT skills are practical tools for managing intense feelings and improving day-to-day coping. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to clarify values and choose committed actions, which can help with parenting strain, life transitions, and motivation.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying different tools and adjusting based on what helps most.
The biography does not specify which session formats are offered online, so confirm current options before booking.
