Hello, my name is Emma and I’m a therapist and trainee Counselling Psychologist. And over to you. Do you feel stuck in patterns in your life that you are struggling to shift? Or would you like to explore certain life events with someone who is not family or a friend? We all have our ways of behaving and seeing the world that have developed over time, and perhaps been useful once, but no longer serve us. I believe that we repeat and relive what we have not processed. These repetitions show up in our relationships, work, choices, and symptoms, but it is very difficult to get out of these behaviours and thinking loops on your own.
Therapy can help with getting to grips with these patterns. I specialise in working with depression, anxiety, loneliness and relationship difficulties. My way of working will help you to understand yourself and make sense of your life and relationships, rather than focusing on symptoms. When the process works well, it can help unburden you of old struggles.
I have worked with all kinds of people, of ages 20-65, of all genders and races, and some of their difficulties have included for example depression, bereavement, OCD, adjustment to health issues and bipolar disorder. I offer a free initial consultation where we can get to know each other and explore how I might be able to help you.

When we first meet, I will be interested to hear about what made you seek out therapy and whether you have had therapy in the past. I would also like to hear about your life so far, including about your childhood, and what your life looks like now. We will also explore what you hope to achieve from therapy and any expectations you may have for me.

My training allows me to draw on Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioural and Person-Centred therapeutic approaches so that the therapy can fit your emotional needs and life situation. We can arrange to work in the short- or long-term. It is very important that you feel that you can work with me. Sometimes it might not quite seem like the right "match", in which case I can recommend another colleague.
