About Emily
Emily Smith is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and ADHD. She works in straightforward, respectful ways and aims to make conversations simple to follow. Emily offers a calm presence for someone who feels overwhelmed or stuck and wants clear, practical support.
Emily draws on Jungian ideas alongside attachment-based and client-centred ways of working. Sessions are conversational and paced to each person.
Background and approach
She listens for patterns in how someone relates to others and to themselves, and then helps them name those patterns and try different responses. Her background includes three years working in the field and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That membership means she follows the association's standards.
She has experience supporting people with a wide range of concerns, including abandonment, body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress, communication problems and feelings of isolation. In therapy she may use mindfulness and elements from dialectical behaviour therapy alongside narrative techniques. These tools are used to help manage strong emotions, build self-understanding and develop new ways of coping.
Practical skills can be taught alongside reflective work on personal meaning. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Emily treats each person as an individual and works with their goals and pace.

Online support
Online therapy using Jungian and attachment-informed approaches
Emily uses Jungian therapy to pay attention to symbols, personal stories and recurring life patterns. This approach helps people reflect on what their experiences and dreams mean and how old patterns repeat in everyday life. Attachment-based therapy is used to look at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and to develop more helpful ways of connecting with others.She also works in a client-centred way that puts the person’s experience at the heart of each session. Together the therapist and client will decide which approaches feel most useful. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as needs and goals become clearer.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls work well for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing, want brief updates, or need more flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and health challenges while keeping the focus on the process and the techniques that help most.
