Thanks!
My understanding is that, for insance, “I embrace your shoulder” and “I put my arm around your shoulder” is a different action. Is that correct? Your phrase includes an action to pull someone closer to me.

Yes!
Embrace usually is the same as hugging so it is closer physical contact and pulling them in.
To put your arm around a shoulder is just the action of reaching out. A less physical contact.
