Emma’s approach to working with her clients is client centred and tailored to best meet the individual needs of her clients. Her unique approach is based on the following tenets.

​

​

Integration
 

Emma’s life experience and training enables her to offer her clients a fully integrated approach to psychological and emotional well-being that focuses on the psychosocial, personal and spiritual development of the individual throughout their lifespan. She is a proponent of Person Centred, Attachment, Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) therapy modalities with a strong emphasis on strength based approaches. This style of therapy emphasises the positive thinking patterns and circumstances in a person’s life rather than the negative. It helps to determine what works for each client by seeing people for who they are as individuals, not who they are by nature of their diagnosis.

​

​

​

Commitment

​

Emma is committed to helping you create balance and harmony in your life as well as supporting you to become the best version of yourself, whether that is in your interpersonal relationships, your work or personally or a combination of all three. She provides a safe and confidential space to help you identify and develop goals that promote a meaningful human experience.

​

​

​

Therapeutic Alliance

​

Emma’s approach offers you space from which to establish a positive client/therapist alliance which promotes the use of that relationship as an organising focus for treatment. She believes every person has the capacity to create change and the therapeutic relationship is the key to unlocking the power within you.

​

​

Sensitivity

​

Each session will be tailored to the individual and their goals and needs with treatments considered and discussed and modified and adapted accordingly. Emma’s lived experience and understanding of the challenges of many of her clients brings with it an implicit sensitivity to the needs of those she works with.  

 

Exploration 

​

Emma works with her clients to explore personal values, belief systems and experiences from culture and family from which have influenced and informed their quality of life and works to adapt them to positively enhance the lives of her clients.
