Meet the Therapist

Hi, my name is Emma and I am an Adult Integrative Counsellor. I offer a safe space, and non-judgmental counselling support where you will have the time you need for yourself. This gives you the space to explore whatever difficulties you are facing, together. It can be such a hard step to come to therapy and I will do everything I can to make you feel welcome and safe throughout the therapeutic process. I understand this can be a daunting experience, but rest assured I will work at your own comfortable pace while adapting my counselling approach to best meet your individual needs, and promoting autonomy every step of the way.

I can help you with a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship issues, trauma and life direction. I will strive to ensure you get the best help you deserve.

Professional Qualifications

I hold qualifications in the following areas:

  • BSc (Hons) Psychology
  • Foundation Degree in Counselling
  • Advanced Diploma in Eating Disorders
  • Level 4 Certificate in Counselling

My Style of Therapy

I use an integrative approach, which means that I draw from a number of counselling models, including psychodynamic, attachment based, and cognitive behavioural therapy.
