Hello, my name is Emma. I am an accredited National Counselling Society integrative psychotherapist with experience working within various educational settings and the community charitable sector.
My approach is warm and gentle, working at your pace, to support you to make the positive changes you want for your life. I am a huge advocate for the quality of the therapeutic relationship between myself and my clients and am experienced in supporting people in a genuinely empathetic and non-judgemental way.
I work privately with adults & young people (16+) both online and face-to-face from a beautiful Grade II listed building in the heart of Bedford. Please see my website for more information or email me your contact details if you'd like to organise a brief (free) phone call with me to discuss your situation in more detail and for both of us to explore whether we feel like we'd be a good fit working together.
*I currently have daytime availability on Tuesday afternoon, Thursdays and Fridays.
