I’m Emma, an integrative counsellor who works with adults and young people aged 12+. At the heart of my practice is the belief that everyone deserves a space where they can feel truly heard, understood, and accepted just as they are.
I offer a warm, steady, and non‑judgemental environment where you can gently explore your experiences at your own pace. My foundation is in Transactional Analysis, but I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches so that our work together feels personal, flexible, and shaped around what you need most.
My aim is for you to feel empowered, valued, and accompanied throughout your counselling journey.
I bring 14 years of experience supporting teenagers in schools and 5 years working with care‑experienced young adults into my counselling work. Using Transactional Analysis, I help clients understand the scripts behind anxiety, trauma, shame and associated behaviours, creating space to heal and work towards healthier, more authentic living.
I understand that choosing a counsellor is an important and personal investment, and I offer a free initial 30 minute consultation, enabling you to make an informed decision about whether you are ready to engage with counselling. Sessions take place at my practice in Wiveliscombe, which has free parking and disabled access. I can also work remotely.
