About Emily
Emily Salkever-Scott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in New Hampshire. She brings seven years of experience and a hopeful, person-centered stance to sessions. Emily focuses on helping people who face anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns.
She also supports those coping with life changes, stress, addiction, and phobias. Emily uses a trauma-informed perspective and draws on practical, evidence-based methods to address everyday problems.
Background and approach
She blends cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thinking patterns with acceptance and commitment ideas that help people live by their values. Her approach also includes attachment-based work to repair trust and improve closeness in relationships. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused.
Emily aims to hear what each person wants to change and then builds simple steps toward that goal. She teaches coping skills for intense emotions and strategies to manage sleep, anger, or addictive urges. Clients report working on parenting challenges, career stress, identity and LGBT issues, and recovery from trauma or loss.
Emily also supports people dealing with attention differences, body image concerns, and caregiver stress. She frames progress as steady, practical gains rather than overnight fixes. For people who prefer remote care, Emily works with clients using video, phone, chat, or messaging options.
She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. Her style is direct, compassionate, and focused on what will help each person move forward.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Emily commonly uses acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and focus on actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions because it emphasizes steady, meaningful action rather than symptom elimination.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is practical and skill-based, and it can help with sleep problems, phobias, depression, and anxiety by teaching concrete tools to manage symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. This collaborative process aims to match strategies to the client's needs and preferences.
Online sessions can be done by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow for a conversational session much like in-person meetings. Phone sessions can be useful when less bandwidth or no camera is preferred. Live chat and messaging work well for quick check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support, or when a shorter, more frequent touchpoint fits into a busy day.
These options make therapy easier to fit into work, caregiving, or travel schedules and let clients continue care when circumstances change.
