Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Bringing difficult feelings to counselling can feel overwhelming and it can take time for you to feel comfortable doing this, there is no rush. We will work at a pace which suits you and I will listen in a non-judgemental, supportive, and respectful way.
As an Integrative therapist I have experience working with elements of different therapeutic models. The benefit of this is that I can blend techniques to find a way of working which is helpful to you. I believe that our mind, bodies, and feelings are linked and will therefore work in a holistic way offering tools such as grounding and breathing techniques where I feel they may help. Sometimes clients find it helpful to work in the here and now, right down to the way in which we interact in the therapy session. Other times it is helpful to look back to past experiences to examine what affect they have had on us and how they might be impacting our life in the present. There may be opportunity for us to work creatively if you find working in a more abstract way helpful.
At the core of my practice is the belief that you are the expert on you even when you might not feel like it. Therefore, I will not tell you what to do but rather support you through your journey of self-exploration. By the time we end therapy it is my hope that you feel more able to face day to day life in a more confident and self-compassionate way.

Emma Cuckson offers a calm, patient approach to working with difficult feelings, recognising that bringing those concerns to counselling can feel overwhelming and that everyone moves at their own pace. She listens in a non-judgemental, supportive and respectful way, and will match the speed of the work to what feels right for each person.
As an integrative therapist, Emma draws on elements from different therapeutic models and blends techniques to create a personalised way of working. She views mind, body and emotions as connected and uses holistic tools such as grounding and breathing exercises when these are likely to be helpful.
Sometimes her work focuses on the here and now, including the way the therapeutic relationship unfolds in session. At other times she explores past experiences to identify their impact on present life. If it feels suitable, she can also introduce creative or more abstract methods to support exploration.
Central to Emma’s practice is the belief that the individual is the expert on themselves. She does not direct clients on what to do but supports their process of self-exploration. Her aim is that, by the end of therapy, people feel better able to face day-to-day life with greater confidence and self-compassion.
