About Emma
Emma Marsh helps people who are struggling with relationships, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, stress and anxiety. She also supports those facing addiction, grief, parenting strain, sleep or eating difficulties, career worries, bipolar and depression. Emma presents information plainly and aims to make first steps easier to take.
Emma has worked in counselling for 11 years and holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to guide her practice. She offers a non-judgemental space where people can speak openly about their thoughts and feelings.
Background and approach
The tone is calm and direct so conversations stay practical and focused. Emma blends several approaches to suit each person’s needs. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape present patterns.
She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviours. Motivational interviewing and dialectical skills are used when people need support with change, emotion regulation or difficult impulses. Sessions aim to be collaborative.
Emma listens for what matters most, then co-creates goals and steps that feel manageable. Practical tools and short exercises are offered between sessions when helpful. Progress is reviewed regularly so the work stays relevant.
People who choose Emma often want straight talking and steady support during stressful life transitions. She works to make therapy accessible and understandable, breaking down complex issues into small, workable steps.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through your situation and preferences and then try methods that fit your goals. This is a collaborative process so techniques are adjusted as progress is made and priorities change.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are useful when a face-to-face style exchange helps; phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or need a lower-bandwidth option. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or when writing things out feels clearer. These options help therapy fit around work, family duties and day-to-day life.
