More about Emma

16 years' experience

NCPS

I am an Accredited Professional in the UK with 16 years of therapy experience.

I love to work with people feeling lost or confused with their identity, I have a huge passion working with clients who are from the queer community. Transgender, non-binary or exploring their sexual identity in general.

I have experience in helping clients explore Trauma, PTSD and complex PTSD. Clients feeling depressed, stressed and anxiety, I offer you a gentle place to share and work together through this without judgement.

I work with a lot of people exploring family issues historical and current. People experiencing changes in their family or in their relationships.

With many years of experience I can work with most things you are facing. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support and nurture you in that process. I have a vast amount of skills and knowledge, working with you in the way that feels best for your healing. I like to work with symbolism and imagery, I have a passion for the work of Carl Jung.

I will work with you in a nurturing and non judgemental way, I can also offer gentle challenge to encourage growth and deepen understanding of your experience of life

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
