Hello, my name is Emma, and I am an LGBTQIA+ therapist and business consultant specialising in mental health and addiction support. My areas of expertise include trauma, mental health, and substance misuse. I work with individuals facing challenges such as anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, grief, loss, and addiction. My practice is built on a person-centered approach, which considers each individual as a whole, encompassing their unique experiences and circumstances. As a narrative therapist, I to explore personal stories and identify behavioral patterns, guiding individuals toward meaningful change and growth.
I specialise in LGBTQIA+ therapy, supporting individuals exploring their gender identity or transitioning. With a gentle, client-paced approach, I aim to create a safe space where you feel understood and respected. Having faced challenges myself, I’m here to offer compassion, guidance, and support tailored to your unique journey.
I understand how challenging it can be to take that first step and reach out for support. My approach is compassionate and tailored to your unique needs, offering a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore your experiences. Together, we can work at a pace that feels right for you, helping you navigate your journey toward healing and self-discovery.
