Emily Wheeldon

Hello, I am Emily and welcome to my profile.

I am a fully qualified counsellor and psychotherapist and registered member of BACP. I am a trained person-centred therapist which means that I will help you to explore your own issues, feelings, beliefs, behaviour and worldview, so you can become more self-aware and achieve greater independence. I also integrate elements of other psychological approaches to meet people's needs, as I believe a 'one-size-fits-all' approach is not for everyone. I offer counselling for a wide range of issues but also specialise in bereavement counselling, anxiety, stress, ecotherapy/walking therapy and counselling for people affected by cancer.

I offer face-to-face and online counselling via zoom. I also offer walking therapy outdoors. Please contact me by phone or email for details.

I am based in Suffolk and Norfolk and offer face-to-face sessions outdoors and in my counselling rooms in Bury St Edmunds, and in central Norwich. I work with adults and children of secondary age (12 years and upwards). 

About me

Caring, warm, accepting and motivating.

I offer my clients a confidential space to breathe, talk, and 'just be'.  I am very committed to offering you genuine empathic understanding, warmth, acceptance and deep respect. I will help to empower you to grow and see things more clearly.

I am a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist. I currently work in private private and as a school counsellor. I used to  volunteer as a counsellor at Macmillan Cancer Care and as a listening volunteer for Cruse. I am also a qualified teacher of 25 years + and have extensive experience supporting children and teenagers. I have an enhanced DBS check and up-to-date safeguarding training.

Talking therapy helps us to untangle our thoughts and make sense of things and it can take time.  I can help you to heal from your past experiences and will support you to find your inner voice and freedom to be you. My business name, 'Naturally me' stems from that thought - I will support you to work out what you want and be your authentic self.

I work with a range of issues including ADHD, ASD, abuse, anxiety and panic attacks, social anxiety, bullying, health anxiety, depression, confidence issues, trauma, bereavement, loss, adjusting to and living with a health diagnosis such as cancer, life direction, family issues, relationship issues, school issues, work stress and special educational needs. We will work together to find a path which meets your needs on your journey. Most clients make great progress in between 6 and 12 sessions.

What happens next?

The first step is to arrange a free initial assessment to summarise some of the issues you wish to discuss in therapy and to get to know one another in a client-counsellor relationship. Please contact me via email or phone 07368 940271.
