Emily St Johnston Registrated MBACP

About me

I am a BACP registered Counsellor and Psychotherapist working in  Woodbridge, Suffolk and Notting Hill Gate, London. I offer both short and long term counselling, working with Individuals, Couples, Adolescents and Children

I completed my training in 2002 and worked for a large GP practice in Suffolk. My Clients were varied, both individuals and couples ranging in age from 7 to 80 plus. In 2003, continuing my work at the GP surgery, I began in Private Practice and I also started working in an Adolescent Referral Unit in Suffolk. I now practice privately in Suffolk and London, clients are referred through GP'S practices ,word of mouth or the internet .

What is Counselling and Psychotherapy?

Counselling and Psychotherapy can help through weekly discussions and sharing, with a trained therapist, to explore feelings and personal struggles that may be causing you stress, anxiety or difficulties.

The Approach

The approach that I practice is called “Humanistic Person or Client Centered” and trusts in the client’s abilities to explore their own difficulties and make their own choices if offered the appropriate facilitative conditions. The Counsellor will therefore not offer advice but offer a ‘safe’ and confidential space place to explore personal difficulties thereby enabling you to find your own solutions and coping strategies .

How the sessions work

An initial session will be offered for the individual or couple, to assess whether this approach to Counselling feels appropriate. After the initial session you may wish to continue regular counselling sessions, usually weekly and of fifty minute duration.

I offer evening appointments and early morning appointments
