About Emily

Emily Salkever-Scott brings a trauma-informed, person-centered approach to her work as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC). With seven years of clinical experience, she emphasizes practical skills and collaborative goal-setting so clients can make measurable changes that reflect their values and priorities.

Background and approach

Her training includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside other evidence-based methods, and she integrates these tools to address patterns that maintain anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship concerns. Emily draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and attachment-focused perspectives to tailor care to each individual.

She aims to create a hopeful, strengths-based environment where people can rebuild trust, strengthen self-worth, and develop coping strategies for life transitions, parenting stress, career challenges, and compassion fatigue. Emily is available to work with clients in New Hampshire and accepts international clients, offering a variety of online formats to match different needs and schedules.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care



Emily commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT focuses on practical exercises and skill-building that can reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which emphasizes clarifying personal values and learning to accept difficult emotions while taking committed action toward meaningful goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Emily collaborates with each person to determine which methods feel most useful. She blends relational, skills-based, and attachment-aware techniques so treatment aligns with a client’s goals, personal history, and preferences rather than adhering to a single protocol.

Online therapy with Emily is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different lifestyles and needs. These formats make it easier to fit regular sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access care from geographic locations outside New Hampshire. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and tools to work effectively across these remote formats, supporting steady progress toward client goals.
