Emma normally drives a light blue BMW 1 Series M Sport. The registration is F5 EMA.
Her car has been removed by police and is undergoing a full forensic examination.
Specialist officers have been searching areas and properties around Monkton, including two cars which are also being examined.
Officers continue to review CCTV footage for any sightings of the missing woman or her car.
Detective Chief Inspector Martin Fergus, from Police Scotland’s Major Investigations Team, said: “Emma is in constant contact with her family and friends and the fact that she has not been heard from is alarming.
“Emma also has a dog, a west highland terrier, and she would never leave it for any length of time without ensuring someone is able to look after it.
“We are liaising with Emma’s family and we now believe that she may have come to harm. ”
“They are distraught at not knowing where she is or what may have happened to her.
“I would appeal to anyone who may have information or knowledge as to her whereabouts to contact us.”
