Hello, I’m Emma, founder of The Flawed Journey a private practice I created in 2019 to offer a space that feels real, safe, and deeply supportive. I work with adults who feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve them - overthinking, people-pleasing, anxiety that spirals, low self-esteem, or the lingering impact of childhood experiences.
You might feel disconnected from yourself, struggling in your relationships, or wondering why you keep repeating the same patterns even when you know they’re not helping. Maybe you’re simply tired of carrying everything alone.

Together, we can explore the best ways to support you. Many clients are embarking on their recovery journey and are seeking relief from very acute addictive behaviours. Others are seeking longer-term psychotherapy to heal the wounds underlying those addictions. Others still, are seeking just a few sessions for specific challenges, such as a relationship break-up, bouts of anxiety or depression, or because they feel stuck in some way. And often, people don’t really know what they want and need yet, and that’s ok too. Whatever you bring, you are welcome here. Please have a look at my website for food addiction recovery group work.

Welcome — I’m Harriet. I support over-thinkers to manage anxiety, and mood, so they can stay more present and less consumed by worry. Together, we can work to gently stretch your comfort zone and work towards everyday shifts like: breathing more deeply and finding calm in stressful moments, catching worries earlier and feeling less stuck in your head, being more present in conversations, resting without guilt & embracing slower mornings, responding to emotions with less overwhelm and more self-kindness, pausing before reacting, making decisions with more ease—without overanalysing every option or replaying every conversation.

You might be coping on the outside, but inside you’re struggling with self-doubt and a persistent sense that you should be "doing better," no matter how hard you try. Inside, you notice patterns that don't feel good: anxiety, overthinking, people-pleasing, shame or self-doubt, or using alcohol, drugs, food, or distraction to cope. You may have already tried to push yourself to think more positively or behave differently, but when it doesn’t work or doesn't last, you end up feeling guilty or frustrated. You want to feel good about yourself, not to feel so worried about things, and move towards what you want in life.

You are probably a person who has had a degree of success in your life so far, but experiences a level of noticeable dissatisfaction or unresolved difficulty, which you may have felt for some time. Often this experience shows itself in our unhappiness with relationships, family or work/career. You may have had a recent loss that you are having difficulty moving on from, or perhaps you are noticing a pattern in your experiences that seem to recur, no matter what you try to do differently. You are a self-reflective person who is curious about how to change yourself and are now motivated to do so.

Something isn’t quite right. It may be that you can’t stop yourself from worrying. Or you are compulsively avoiding things (places, people, certain situations). Perhaps you find yourself flying into a sudden, uncontrollable, panic. It may be that you are feeling down: you can’t shake the sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness in your life. You may be feeling worthless and guilty too. It could be your relationships that aren’t working (partner, friends, family, boss, or colleagues). Perhaps past experiences are haunting you so that you lose your connection to the present and the people in it. Perhaps it's all of the above.
