About Emily

Emily Bolland is a counsellor who focuses on trauma, anxiety and low mood. She uses a warm, straightforward style and aims to put people at ease quickly. Sessions are practical and conversational so people can talk through immediate problems and plan small steps forward.

Background and approach

She has six years of experience working across mental health settings in the United Kingdom. Her background includes work in community mental health teams and neurodevelopmental assessment services. That experience informs how she approaches anxiety, trauma and neurodiversity related concerns.

People commonly bring stress, depression, self-esteem and ADHD-related difficulties to sessions. Emily uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She blends approaches such as acceptance and commitment ideas, psychodynamic thinking and humanistic practice.

In plain terms she will help you notice patterns, make clearer sense of painful feelings and try out different ways of coping. Therapy with Emily is collaborative. She will listen, reflect what matters to you and agree small, practical goals.

Sessions are offered online by a mix of video calls, phone, live chat and text messaging.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Emily lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Practical therapy approaches and online options

Emily often uses acceptance and commitment ideas alongside psychodynamic and humanistic perspectives. Acceptance and commitment ideas focus on noticing thoughts and feelings without fighting them, then choosing actions that match personal values - this can help with anxiety, low mood and trauma-related avoidance. Psychodynamic thinking pays attention to repeating patterns and past relationships that shape current feelings, which can be useful for problems around attachment, abandonment and long-standing difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a partnership. The therapist will listen to your story, discuss what seems most helpful and adjust methods over time. Together you will agree on goals and try practical experiments to see what works for you rather than committing to a single method up front.

Online therapy offers practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distance and are useful when visual cues matter. Phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or need a lower-bandwidth option. Live chat and text-based messaging provide brief check-ins, written reflection and flexibility for busy days. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family life while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
