About Emily

Emily Schram is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with eight years of clinical experience based in New Mexico. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem, relationship issues, and challenges tied to family of origin. Sessions are conducted in English and she draws on several therapeutic approaches to match each person’s situation.

Emily helps people identify unhelpful patterns that began in childhood and continue to affect relationships and self-view. She uses practical strategies to teach coping skills and to change day-to-day thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety or low mood. Conversations are straightforward and focused on small, manageable steps.

Her background includes a master’s degree in counseling and experience in outpatient community and private clinic settings since 2013. Over eight years she has worked with adults on diverse issues including body image, fertility stress, postpartum mood, and family problems.

In session she combines elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy depending on the concern. That means sessions may include skill-building, identifying thinking patterns, brief goal-focused work, and practicing new ways of coping between meetings.

Emily emphasizes collaborative work on practical goals. She asks about what is working and what isn’t, then develops straight-ahead strategies to try. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.

How Emily uses CBT, DBT, and solution-focused work online

Emily commonly draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy as part of online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. DBT offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving day-to-day coping.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on short-term, goal-oriented steps and what a person wants to be doing differently in daily life. That approach is useful when someone needs clear, practical changes to feel steadier and more capable.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Emily will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That conversation is collaborative and may change over time as needs evolve.
