Creative Therapy Counselling in HR1

I am an art psychotherapist with additional trainings in relational trauma therapy and applied Buddhist psychology. I am also a qualified clinical supervisor. As a therapist with nearly two decades of experience I have worked with children and adults, within family services, hospices, acute mental health and inpatient services, in children's centres and more recently in private practice. I have also as, a socially engaged Buddhist practitioner, worked on overseas projects including in Delhi, Assam and Nepal and in Europe.

Life can be really complex and often overwhelming, leaving us at times feeling isolated and alone, even when we are surrounded by people. As such there might be many different reasons why people come into counselling. Sometimes the issues we experience have clear causes and explanations and at other times it might feel less obvious and harder therefore to identify. What I would hope to offer you is a place that feels safe, supportive and confidential where you are able to explore whatever it is for you personally that you want to address without fear of judgement and criticism.

I am a fully qualified integrative therapist, experienced in working with couples and individuals of all ages, and from all walks of life. I'm not your everyday counsellor, I truly believe that we all have it within us to be our best selves, happy and content, but that comes from understanding ourselves better. I often see clients in the middle of a crisis who need more immediate help, and I also work with people who are otherwise happy but want help moving forwards in their life. I see couples who may have got into bad habits, and may want help building an environment which will enable the relationship to flourish once again.

Hi I’m Emma and I specialise in working with Children and Young people. I work with adults also, both online and Face to Face. I work in an Person Centred, integrative manner, and creatively with younger children. My therapy caters for individuality. Please ask if you have any questions.

Are you struggling with challenges in your relationships or feeling overwhelmed and anxious? Do you want to make changes in your life but don’t know where to start? Have you experienced something traumatic, like emotional or physical abuse, and need a safe, supportive space to process it? Having been through therapy myself, I know how vulnerable it can feel to share difficult thoughts and feelings with someone new. My goal is to support and empower you, helping you understand your emotions. With warmth, kindness, and understanding, I am here to help you build confidence, boost your self-esteem, and identify and meet your needs.

Have things come to a point in your life where it just feels really difficult to carry on? Do you find that you are anxious, worrying over the future, and fretting about decisions that need to be made? Do your thoughts drift repeatedly into the past, perhaps returning you to trauma or disappointment? Would you really like to be listened to with care and attention? Perhaps it is not advise that you need, just the opportunity to share what you’re going through, and find ways to feel better, more resilient and more able to cope. Perhaps you just want to feel more contented and at peace.

Im a very intuitive therapist, i feel and sense someone before they sit down. I am confident in using tools to support and hold you while you find your way to answers you may seek. Do you have to make a difficult decision? Do you still have pain from the past interfering with now? Or perhaps you just need to find ways to cope?

I will give you the space to talk and explore what you're experiencing in a confidential setting. And help you find healthy coping strategies to develop long term ways of looking after your mental health. Sessions are online (anywhere in UK) or outdoors in the Malvern Hills.
