Hi, I’m Emma and I offer a compassionate and containing space for us to explore what it is that has brought you into therapy and how we can understand what is needed for you to have the full life experiencer that you desire. I offer an eclectic approach to therapy, depending on the needs you are coming for and the age, circumstance and appropriateness of how we will work together. I believe the relationship we hold is at the centre of the healing process and so I will be focused on what that needs to be for you and how that needs to be developed with others too.

In nearly forty years of work (twenty-eight in private practice), I have encountered many forms of human suffering and many stories of courage, strength and resilience. I believe we all have the resources to meet anything life throws at us, however impossible it seems and however lost and hopeless we feel. My aim is to offer a safe haven at such times of distress, to support you in finding those resources within yourself and for your life to become not only bearable again but a source of joy and contentment.

You're under pressure to 'hold it all together', but underneath there may be anxiety, low mood, or strain in your relationships. Caught between external achievements and what you're experiencing internally, things may look successful on paper, but inside there may be exhaustion, self-doubt, or a loss of meaning. Constant pressure, high standards, or a particular challenge at work or in your personal life may have become overwhelming. You might feel you should be coping better or managing this without help. What you're looking for is space to talk, understand what's happening, and find a more sustainable path forward.

I am a qualified Counsellor with a private Practice in central Newbury. I support clients with a wide range of life’s challenges. You may be experiencing a heightened sense of anxiety, self-doubt, or low self-esteem following unexpected or unwelcome change — perhaps a new work situation, the breakdown of a long-term relationship, or the loss of someone close to you. You might be feeling overwhelmed by increasing demands on your time, or as though your needs are not being heard. These experiences can trigger unhelpful thought patterns, often rooted in earlier life experiences, leaving everything feeling heavy and difficult to manage

Hi, I'm Nicola. You are here because something isn’t going well in your life & the way that makes you feel isn't something you want to continue tolerating. It takes a lot to challenge familiar patterns because even when we dislike them they can feel safer than change. But my boundaried, thoughtful counselling can support you on your journey to understand what underlies your issues & work out what to do about it.

A friendly, experienced counsellor. My clients range from people with specific issues like grief and relationship breakdown to people who just don't feel right. Mental health can affect every part of our lives. It is therefore important to get help as soon as possible. I used to be a family solicitor, and so I specialise in helping clients through relationship issues and breakdowns. This is both individually and as a couple. This involves working through issues like anger, anxiety and depression as well as low self confidence.

Do relationships feel like hard work instead of bringing you joy and being a "safe heaven"? Whether you’re single, dating or in a long-term relationship, you still may feel lonely, confused or stuck. And you start overthinking, feeling anxious, guilty or “not enough”. Maybe you keep arguing about “small things”, avoid intimacy or notice the same painful story repeating with different people. But deep down, you long for calm, emotional safety and honest conversations – to feel close and wanted, and finally relax and be yourself without losing your independence

I've been through challenging times myself: sent away to school at eight; losing my mother at ten; going through a difficult divorce.
My main method in couples work is emotionally focused therapy. Couples can find the connection they need by feeling safe to share, not bury, their painful emotions. Once you feel heard and can listen to your partner, the healing can begin. My individual work also concentrates on emotions: how loneliness and anxiety can be overcome through self-realisation.

Divorce Counsellors
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
