About Emma
Emma Marshall is a BACP counsellor with 12 years of experience supporting people who are struggling with stress, anxiety and depression. She offers a calm, warm style and aims to make first steps into therapy gentle and manageable. Emma writes in plain language and focuses on practical conversation that helps people feel heard and understood.
Her approach pays attention to connections - how people relate to themselves and to others.
Background and approach
She believes people can recover a sense of wholeness when given space to reflect. In sessions she listens closely and helps clients find small, realistic steps they can try between meetings. Emma has worked with grief, trauma and abuse, chronic illness and caregiving strain.
She also supports people with ADHD-related experiences, relationship and communication problems, self-esteem and life transitions. Her experience includes issues around parenting, pregnancy and childbirth and midlife change. Practical concerns such as work stress, career questions and compassion fatigue are also part of her caseload.
She helps people navigate guilt, shame, abandonment and the isolation that can follow loss. Sessions aim to build steadier coping and clearer next steps. Emma offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.
She works from the United Kingdom and provides therapy in English. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the client.

Online support
She also uses trauma-informed ways of working that prioritise pacing and emotional safety. That approach helps people who have experienced abuse or difficult losses to slowly rebuild a sense of control and reduce overwhelming reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Emma treats therapy as a collaboration and will help clients decide which methods fit their situation and goals. She adjusts the pace and techniques to suit what a person needs in the moment.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls let you keep face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins and a flexible way to reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings.
