About Emily

Emily Salkever-Scott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in New Hampshire with seven years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, anger, and relationship issues. She also supports people navigating addiction, ADHD, parenting strain, and identity-related stress.

Her approach is rooted in client-centered care and attachment-based thinking. That means sessions focus on the person's experience and on how early relationship patterns influence current behavior. She also draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and practice new skills.

Emily uses acceptance and commitment therapy ideas to clarify values and guide action. She combines this with practical skills from CBT and DBT when coping skills or emotion regulation are priorities. Conversations tend to be straightforward and goal-focused, with concrete ideas to try between sessions.

She has experience with family of origin concerns, abandonment and attachment issues, and with people affected by adoption and foster care. She also addresses caregiving stress, blended family questions, and challenges that show up around intimacy and commitment.

Sessions are conducted in English and she works with international clients as well. Costs vary by location and therapy is provided via a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Emily commonly draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, attachment-based therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters to them and take manageable steps toward those values even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. Attachment-based therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current closeness, trust, and communication. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to emphasize and adjust the plan as progress is observed or priorities change.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking since the biography does not list formats. Many people find online sessions fit daily life better because they remove travel time and can be scheduled around work or caregiving. Online work can also make shorter check-ins easier and reduce the need to be on camera for every meeting. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, attachment work, and CBT exercises to remote sessions so clients can practice skills between meetings and bring real-life examples into therapy.
