About Emily

Emily Groves is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low self‑esteem. She also supports people dealing with depression, parenting pressures, compassion fatigue and trauma and abuse. Emily aims to make first contact feel straightforward and calm for anyone who is nervous about starting therapy.

She works in short, clear sessions that focus on what matters most to the client right now.

Background and approach

Conversations are direct but warm. The aim is practical: identify unhelpful patterns, try small changes and build strategies that feel doable in daily life. Emily has three years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which reflects registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person’s needs rather than using one fixed method. Sessions usually begin by clarifying immediate concerns and realistic goals. Over time she helps clients develop tools for managing strong emotions, improving communication and making clearer decisions about relationships and work.

Therapy also addresses identity and intimacy-related worries when these come up. She offers a steady, non‑judgemental presence and encourages small experiments between sessions. The work is collaborative: clients set the pace and Emily adjusts her approach to fit their priorities and lifestyle.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Emily uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, then try small experiments to break those cycles and reduce anxiety or low mood. Another approach concentrates on emotions and relationships, helping clients understand attachment and communication so they can manage conflict and improve intimacy.

Choosing the right method is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and together with the client will decide which approach fits best with their goals, comfort level and daily life. This is a collaborative process and the plan can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Online work is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text‑based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for a closer face‑to‑face feel, phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check‑in, and messaging can suit short updates or when a written record of thoughts is helpful. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel, and allow people to continue therapy even if their routine changes.
