About
Emma Barty is a Level 7 transpersonal counsellor and a BACP-registered practitioner who works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, grief, self esteem, depression, ADHD, trauma and eating or sleeping difficulties. Her background includes roles with the NHS, Cruse Bereavement Services and Mind, and she draws on clinical training in DBT, CBT, trauma work, ADHD and ASD informed practice as part of a holistic offering.
Her practice blends talking therapy with hands-on creative approaches such as art and crafts, play, sand play, puppetry, dance and movement, visualization and meditation. She also uses techniques including Emotional Freedom Technique, mindfulness practices, yoga and chakra dance so that sessions can include imagination and body-based activity as well as verbal reflection.
Initial meetings focus on why someone is seeking support, what they hope to achieve and a series of questions to decide whether the working relationship is a good fit and whether the right type of support can be offered. If both agree to proceed, practical matters such as times, session length, fees, safeguarding and a co-created agreement are discussed. Monthly supervision is part of her professional practice.

Online and remote counselling options
Emma offers remote sessions that adapt her transpersonal and creative practice for video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Online meetings can include talking therapy alongside guided visualization, mindfulness exercises or movement suggestions that translate into a virtual setting. She draws on her training in online counselling to structure sessions that reflect a client’s needs.
Client-Centered Therapy is used to shape sessions around each person’s priorities, with space for open dialogue and co-creation of a plan. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is offered as a skills-focused option for managing overwhelming emotions and building coping strategies. Mindfulness Therapy is integrated to support present-moment awareness and grounding techniques. These approaches can be combined with creative activities or somatic-informed suggestions depending on what the client prefers.
Emma works collaboratively to tailor the mix of approaches and to agree how remote sessions will run, including which communication format will be used and the practical details of meeting times and session length.
