Emma Smith
Psychotherapist, MUKCP

I specialise in working with depression, anxiety, loneliness and relationship difficulties.
Hello, my name is Emma and I'm an Integrative Psychotherapist and trainee Counselling Psychologist. And over to you. Do you feel stuck in patterns 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 tend to repeat what we have not processed. These repetitions show up in our relationships, work, choices, and symptoms, but it is difficult to get out of these behaviours and thinking loops on your own.

Are you anxious more often than you would like?
I can help you to slow down and gain space to breathe. Then recognise how you feel, and link this to thoughts so you can become more aware of yourself and how you behave. This will help you to feel less overwhelmed and to trust yourself more, feel less anxious about life and more positive about yourself.

The devastation of a loss or bereavement. Career transition. Questions of personal identity. It is at times like these that having someone neutral to talk to can be so valuable.
