Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Hello! I’m Emma, a qualified and experienced Pluralistic Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, Hypnotherapist and Mindfulness Coach, based in Devon, UK.
I provide a safe and compassionate space for those navigating their own unique and, often complex, life journey. Whether you are facing stress and anxiety, relationship issues, a significant life transition or generally feeling “stuck” and lacking motivation, I can offer support. My aim is to empower you through a warm, relaxed and collaborative approach, always respectful of this being your personal journey. Together we will explore the challenges and obstacles you face, while developing strategies to foster inner strength and resilience, guiding you towards a path of peace and fulfilment.
Through my approach I integrate a variety of modalities such as:
• Person-Centred Therapy (focusing on individual life experiences)
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (changing negative thought patterns and behaviours)
• Psychodynamic Therapy (exploring the impact of past experiences on the present)
• Narrative Therapy (exploring life narratives to find meaning and empowerment)
• Hypnotherapy (relaxation techniques and exploring thoughts and feelings)
• Mindfulness (staying present and reducing anxiety)
My approach to counselling is rooted in the belief that every experience, challenge, and emotion is “all part of life’s rich tapestry”. I embrace the unique patterns and threads that make up each individual’s story, recognising that weaving together these elements can lead to greater understanding, healing and personal growth.

Many people ask whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can connect with a therapist in the format that suits them best – video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging – making it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
All participating professionals are licensed, and clients have the option to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful.
For many people, online therapy provides an accessible and practical way to get consistent support for day-to-day mental health challenges and life transitions.
