Emily Wilks, BACP

Emily Wilks is an integrative psychotherapist trained in Person-Centred and Psychodynamic approaches, who places the therapeutic relationship at the centre of her work. She approaches therapy with curiosity and compassion, believing that relationships with oneself and others shape both mental and physical wellbeing.

Emily supports people facing a range of difficulties, including low self-esteem, a sense of being stuck, anxiety and stress, and relationship problems that affect daily life. She also works with clients exploring childhood trauma and experiences of emotional or physical neglect, helping them to understand how past events may be influencing present patterns.

Working collaboratively, Emily creates a trusting space where clients are seen as whole people - their strengths as well as their struggles. Sessions explore current thoughts, feelings and behaviours while reflecting on past relationships and attachment patterns that may be shaping experience. Her style combines honest, direct reflection with warmth and acceptance, aiming to deepen self-awareness and foster a more authentic, balanced life.

Emily is committed to supporting clients through difficult moments as well as moments of joy, and she works at a pace that feels right for each person. She holds the BACP credential, which indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom.
