About me
Hi, I'm Emily a qualified psychotherapist and counsellor passionate about supporting others with compassion and warmth. I currently have availability for online and f2f talking therapy (camera optional). I am also able to offer support within organisational and educational settings (15+).
I have had experience of being a client as well as a therapist and from this experience began wanting to help others with their mental health and wellbeing. I support clients by offering them a non-judgement space and genuine connection. I like to make my clients feel they have someone in their corner and that therapy can be talking through the difficult and emotional stuff but also having a mutual laugh and relaxed chat where appropriate. I enjoy helping people to feel heard, validated and listened to. Allowing them to meet goals, be their amazing true selves and learn more about themselves.
I am open to supporting clients with pretty much any goal, difficulty or issue (no problem is too small all are valid here). Some past things I have supported clients with include self-esteem, Neurodiveristy, loss, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties and trauma. My main experience and specialism is working with young peopled aged 16-30 but have also worked and enjoyed work with clients older than this.
I am an integrative therapist meaning I like to use a variety of methods and tools as opposed to just one. This means the therapy can be more tailored to you as a unique individual.
If you feel we might be the right fit I look forward to hearing from you!♥️

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
