She trained and holds BACP, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Emily has four years of clinical experience supporting people through major life changes, compassion fatigue, bipolar concerns and ADHD-related difficulties.

Background and approach

She also works with issues around abandonment, adoption and foster care, and long-term health challenges such as chronic pain and cancer. Emily practises from a humanistic base, using Client-Centred Therapy alongside Existential Therapy and Mindfulness methods. Sessions focus on building a respectful relationship, helping people notice what matters to them, and trying practical steps that fit everyday life.

Mindfulness is used to bring attention to the present moment and bodily experience. Her style is collaborative and straightforward. People can expect a gentle, listening approach where the therapist helps them identify patterns and choices.

Practical conversation, reflection and moment-to-moment awareness are woven into sessions to help with coping and clearer decision-making. Emily offers online formats and can work with clients internationally. She supports people who are dealing with grief, abuse, communication problems, codependency, dissociation, divorce and other complex life challenges.

Ways of working Emily names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches that fit online counselling

Emily uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on what the person wants to change. This approach centres on being heard, understood and respected, which helps with self-esteem, relationship issues and feeling overwhelmed.

Existential Therapy helps people look at meaning, choice and responsibility in life. It can be useful for coping with grief, life transitions and questions about direction or purpose.

Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to the present moment and bodily experience. It is practical for managing anxiety, stress, sleep issues and addiction cravings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels helpful. Together they decide which methods to use and adjust them as therapy unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual contact helps the work. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, written reflection or people who prefer not to use video. These options make it easier to keep regular sessions while juggling work, family or health commitments.
