About me
Welcome. If my profile makes you think we might be a good fit together then I'd love to help. I'm happy to answer any questions or provide more information if needed. Have a read, and take all the time you need!
Training, qualifications & experience
My name is Emily, and I am a Person Centred (Holistic) Therapist, who also works in a trauma-informed way. I work hard to ensure my practice is a neurodivergent-affirming space too.
Person Centred Counselling is a type of talking therapy that prioritises making each individual client feel comfortable and at ease in their own unique way. Sessions may look a little different with each client, depending on your needs, but I won't make any assumptions or judgements. There's no forced agenda here either, you can bring any issue as many times as you like. Similarly, if there are any ways I can make you feel more at home whilst we chat, then I'm more than happy to try and accommodate for that. Prefer to move around as we chat? Sure. Blankets? Music? All good with me! I welcome all suggestions.
Given my research, and having personal experiences through my family and friends, I also work a lot with autistic clients. I work hard to try and make the counselling process as comfortable and considerate as possible for the neurodivergent community.
In terms of topics, I work a lot with themes of loss, anxiety, self esteem, agoraphobia, physical and mental disability, trauma, and emotional regulation skills. However, I encourage all of my clients to bring whatever is most on their mind that day, as I want to talk through whatever you need to. I really trust that you know yourself better than anyone, so our sessions would work like a collaboration between your own self understanding, and my perspective as a therapist. Together we can try and work out your goals and how we can best make them work for 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.

Further information
It would be such a privilege to be trusted with your thoughts and feelings. It's a responsibility that I take incredibly seriously. If you're looking for a non-judgemental, warm, caring counsellor, then I hope I can help you.
I offer a free, no pressure initial phone consultation, so that we can learn a little more about each other and see what support you might need.
Feel free to pop me an email, and I look forward to learning more about you.
