My name is Emma and I am a qualified integrative counsellor working in Private Practice. I use 3 models of counselling, Gestalt, Transitional Analysis and Person Centred.
I believe that everyone is unique and individual and should be treated that way, we may all need counselling at some stage through our lives to cope with sometimes difficult and troubled circumstances.
This can vary from life changing circumstances in the present or past which you may be finding difficult to deal with at this time.
Counselling is not about changing the past but finding a way to deal with the present and making a decision if moving on is the right thing for you. Sometimes exploring issues can help you to understand how you feel and I am able to offer you support through these difficult times with the knowledge that the service you receive is completely confidential and professional and that you can be assured that you will not be judged.
Your time, your story, because YOU matter.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Emma Wood. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Emma has been a safe space for me to talk about my past and present issues, and helps me to work through them. She listens, and asks questions to understand my feelings.
