About Emily
Emily Salkever-Scott uses a trauma-informed, person-centered approach to help people who feel stuck. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with seven years of clinical experience in New Hampshire. Emily writes plainly and aims to make therapy feel manageable and hopeful.
She focuses on what a person wants to get out of therapy and works at the client’s pace. Sessions emphasize practical skills and real-life changes rather than jargon.
How Emily works
She helps people address anxiety, depression, grief and loss, anger, and addiction concerns. Emily also supports someone dealing with identity and relationship matters, including intimacy, trust, LGBT issues, and communication problems. Parenting strain, sleep problems, career stress, and compassion fatigue are other common topics she addresses.
She can also assist with challenges tied to adoption and foster care, attachment issues, and aging-related concerns. Her work draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered methods. In sessions she blends discussion, emotion-focused work, and concrete coping strategies.
The goal is to build skills that translate to everyday life. Emily accepts sessions in English and welcomes international clients. Appointments are offered through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions according to therapist availability.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with doable behavioral experiments, which often helps with anxiety, sleep problems, and mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships, and it can be helpful for emotional regulation and anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and needs and will tailor methods collaboratively. That way the session plan grows out of what actually helps the individual, not a one-size-fits-all recipe.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes fitting therapy into a busy life easier. Video sessions let people use visual cues and longer conversation. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, and for people who prefer not to be on camera. These formats increase flexibility and make it easier to keep therapy consistent over time.
