I am being treated for complex PTSD. Emma demonstrates a high level of expertise, professionalism, and sensitivity. She has a strong ability to attune to what is happening both emotionally and cognitively, and to adjust the pace of therapy accordingly. I have always felt that she understands the nuances of trauma and works in a way that is both effective and containing.

Our thanks to Emma, who helped us deal with a very complex situation in our family - one which we have been (until recently, unknowingly) struggling with for years. We are in a much better place after being given a greater understanding of our own past traumas, and how to address these to move forward - we felt fully supported, and Emma seemed genuinely commited to our family feeling better.

Emma has been an exceptional family therapist and a true gift to our family. From the first session, she created a safe, supportive, and welcoming space where everyone felt seen and valued. Her empathy, insight, and patience are remarkable, and she has a rare ability to bring clarity and calm even to the most difficult conversations. The impact of her work has been profound and lasting, and we cannot recommend her highly enough.

Emma is immense! We have gone from a family embroiled in chaos to one which has managed to work its way through a mire and find some calm and unity. We would not have been able to achieve this without the direction, and guidance of Emma. She held our hand all the way and has brought us to a place where we can once again communicate and find solutions together, but more importantly, enjoy family life again. Emma is compassionate, professional, knowledgeable, experienced and so skilled. We will forever be grateful to her for all that she has done to rescue us.

Working with Emma has been genuinely life changing. From the first session, she created a space that felt warm, safe and completely free of judgement. Her ability to really listen and see you makes you feel understood and supported, even when discussing difficult topics. Emma offers invaluable perspective in a way that feels gentle and empowering, helping you see things more clearly without ever feeling overwhelmed. It’s rare to find someone who combines such deep professional insight with real human kindness. What makes her especially unique is her thoughtful use of humour. She has an amazing gift to know when to bring in humour at just the right time to lighten heavier moments and ensure sessions feel both productive and human. If you’re looking for a therapist who is insightful, supportive, and wholeheartedly invested in creating a safe space for growth, I cannot recommend Emma highly enough.

I felt safe, heard and seen by Emma from our first session. Emma has helped me find the depth within myself, that I thought wasn’t possible and I am really happy I can call her my therapist. She’s an amazing person first and foremost and amazing at her job.

I was referred to Emma after my leukaemia diagnosis as I was struggling with severe anxiety throughout my treatment. Emma was instrumental in guiding myself and my wife through all the obstacles that my treatment threw in our way. Emma provided the right tools to keep us focused on getting through my treatment, and it was always done with a smile on her face. I would highly recommend Emma to anyone undergoing similar treatment.
