About Emma Hargreaves
Her practice is built on empathy, respect and genuine care, with an emphasis on tailoring work to each individual's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Sessions move at a pace that feels manageable and meaningful, focusing on what matters most to the person seeking help. Reaching out for support can feel daunting after holding everything together for a long time, and Emma frames that first step as an expression of strength rather than weakness.
Emma aims to walk alongside clients as they explore what is happening in their lives and begin to make sense of things together, taking progress one step at a time. She is listed with BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).

Evidence-based approaches and online support
Emma uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical coping skills and reflective conversation. One approach emphasizes skill building and strategy - teaching concrete tools to manage stress, anxiety and low mood, and to support parenting and everyday coping. Another approach focuses on reflective talking work, helping people explore underlying patterns, self-esteem concerns and the emotional impact of life changes so they can begin to make sense of their experience.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and will be handled collaboratively. Emma works with clients to identify their goals, preferences and needs, and together they decide which methods feel most helpful for the work at hand. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy remains relevant and paced to the individual.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video calls, over the phone, via live chat or through text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care when life demands change, while allowing registered professionals and therapists to support progress in ways that suit each client.
