I’m Emily, a counsellor and play therapist.I’m Emily, a qualified counsellor and play therapist. I appreciate that for many, finding the words to express the inner most feelings can be hard. To support with this, I aim to make the counselling session fit the client, rather than the client fit the therapy through an integrative approach, bringing together different modalities. The modalities I mostly work with are person-centred, CBT and psychodynamic. I am also very passionate about the use of more creative tools in counselling such as sand trays, art and metaphor. I also incorporate elements of psychoeducation.

In our counselling sessions, I offer a space that is compassionate and non-judgmental, allowing clients to explore difficult emotions and the challenges currently in their lives. Areas I have worked with include: anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, bereavement, illness of a loved one, emotional based school avoidance, neurodivergence, LGBTQ+ related issues, stress and OCD. 

I value the individual as they are, so when working with those who are neurodivergent and members of the LGBTQ+ community I use an affirmative approach. 

I am currently offering counselling sessions to adults and adolescents (aged 12+). These sessions are either face to face in Sidcup or online for clients anywhere in the UK. Sessions last 50 minutes and are priced at £65 per session.

I also offer single session therapy. 

When attending counselling, the relationship is crucial, and the first step is often the hardest. I offer a free 20 minute, no obligation phone consultation to allow you to decide if I am the right fit for you. In our first session we will explore how we will work together, looking at what has bought you to counselling and any goals you would like to set.
