About me
Hello! I’m Emma, a transpersonal therapist with a focus on stress, self-worth, navigating life changes, relational traumas, and exploring relationships. My approach is holistic and trauma-informed, emphasising the mind-body connection.
I'm committed to providing a safe, supportive, and confidential environment where you can explore your feelings and grow.
Key Focus Areas
○ Negative self-talk
○ Relationship issues and break-ups
○ Being in and staying in unhealthy relationships
○ Lack of focus and direction in life
○ University studying stress and pressures
○ Boundary Setting
○ Spiritual inquiry and existential
○ Family issues and past traumas
Drawing from both professional and personal experience in therapy, I offer a compassionate and understanding approach, ensuring you feel heard and valued. I also believe financial constraints should not hinder therapy. I offer a sliding scale fee to accommodate your financial situation as a student. Our sessions are strictly confidential, allowing you to express yourself freely.

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.
