About me

Thank you for taking the time to do some research. My name is Emma Roberts. I consider myself a dedicated and compassionate CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) psychotherapist I focus on empowering young people and adults, ages 10 and up, to overcome challenges and enhance their mental well-being. With a strong belief in the transformative power of therapy, I can provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings, develop coping strategies, and build resilience.


With years of experience, I employ evidence-based techniques tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. My job as a therapist is to equip my clients with the tools they need to thrive in today's fast-paced world. Whether working through anxiety, depression, or life transitions, my empathetic approach fosters growth and healing.


My goal is to not only help my clients manage their current difficulties but to also instil a sense of hope and confidence that they can carry forward into the future. By fostering a nurturing environment, I aim to guide my clients towards a path of self-discovery and personal growth, enabling them to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives.

Training, qualifications & experience

After obtaining my social work degree, my goal shifted towards providing more holistic and organic support to people. I aimed to assist them in progressing and living the life they desired without waiting for a crisis to arise. This journey began with training in holistic mind-body connections to offer mindfulness and EFT to adults, followed by training to implement the 'youth mindfulness' initiative for young groups. Additionally, I served as a support/project worker for various projects and user groups. Subsequently, I decided to delve into talking therapy. Driven by a growing interest in mental health and equipped with an HNC in counselling, I pursued training to become a CBT psychotherapist. Shortly after becoming certified, I ventured into working with children and young people, discovering that I possessed both the knowledge and skills required for the role. Continuously evolving and expanding in my field, my aim remains consistent: empowering individuals with the confidence and tools to proactively manage their mental well-being.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.

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).
