About Emma Kennedy
Emma approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she adapts conversation and treatment plans to suit individual needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model. Her practice draws on evidence-informed methods chosen to address the specific concerns someone brings, and she aims to create an environment in which people can explore difficult experiences and develop practical ways to move forward. She also recognises that taking the first step toward support often requires courage, and she affirms those who choose to begin that process.
Throughout her work Emma focuses on building understanding, strengthening coping skills, and supporting clients as they navigate relationship patterns, recover from trauma, or manage life transitions.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and to take steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings; it can be helpful for anxiety, avoidance, and navigating life changes).Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT focuses on practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and enhancing interpersonal effectiveness - it is often used where emotion regulation and relationship patterns are a concern).
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT emphasises understanding and reshaping emotional responses within relationships to improve attachment and communication, which can be valuable for couples and attachment-related issues).
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Emma works collaboratively with people to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. Together they review options and adjust the approach as progress is made.
Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for those with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. Registered professionals can deliver the same core therapeutic skills through these formats, making it easier to maintain continuity of support, try shorter check-ins, or fit sessions into daily life.
