Emma West Counselling
Online counselling for you,
wherever you are
Hello - my name is Emma - I am an experienced, BACP accredited counsellor with specialist training in online counselling.
​​
I've found that the vast majority of my clients benefit from psycho education [learning about how the brain works but without needing to be a neuroscientist!] - say hello to your 'Monkey' brain... and most want practical strategies and techniques that they can easily apply to effect change. If that sounds like you then please get in touch.
​
I can help you with a range of issues including stress, low mood, anxiety, dissatisfaction at work or with life in general, low self esteem/confidence, relationship/family problems, parenting issues, loss, anger and trauma.
​​​
I also have specialist experience and knowledge of disability, carer, health, student and gender dysphoria issues, and I am LGBTQIA2S+ affirmative. I have lived experience of rare disability and carer issues.
​
I charge £60 for a 50 minute session which includes being sent resources post session for you to refer to and keep.
​​​
While I can't give you medical advice I can support you if you are thinking about taking, are taking, or wish to stop taking, psychiatric drugs eg 'antidepressants'.​​
Why have online counselling
There are many advantages to online counselling in terms of time, cost and location.
My approach
The most important thing in counselling is the ‘therapeutic relationship’ – a good counsellor is one who leaves you feeling you are are being listened to, cared for
and not judged.
