About Emma

Emma Manthy is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and mood difficulties, and supports those affected by trauma and abuse. Emma also works with issues around intimacy, anger, grief and relationship concerns, and offers coaching-style support when clients want practical steps to change.

Emma keeps sessions respectful and straightforward. She adapts her approach to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.

Background and approach

People can expect a calm, compassionate space to talk through what feels most urgent to them and to set small, achievable goals. Her background includes work as a health and wellbeing coach and designing psychoeducational workshops for organisations and the public. That experience feeds into a practical focus in therapy - helping people build skills they can use between sessions.

Emma brings nine years of practice to conversations about long-standing patterns and recent crises alike. Therapeutic methods she commonly draws on include Trauma-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centred ways of working. She matches techniques to a person's needs and pace, using mindfulness and skills practice where helpful.

Emma supports people with additional concerns such as ADHD, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic pain and illness, eating-related issues and codependency. She explains options clearly and helps clients decide what to try next.

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

How Emma uses therapeutic methods online

Emma commonly uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people process distress from past harm and reduce ongoing symptoms. That approach focuses on understanding the impact of traumatic events and building coping skills to manage strong feelings and memories.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, which helps people clarify their values and take small steps toward a meaningful life even when difficult thoughts or feelings remain. Client-Centred work underpins her style, offering a non-judgemental listening space so clients feel heard and can decide what matters most to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emma will discuss different methods with clients and choose techniques together based on needs, goals and what feels comfortable. This collaborative process means plans can change as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions suit people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, written reflection and flexible support between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on steady progress.
