About Emily

Emily Callaghan is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with people experiencing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She holds BACP accreditation, and brings six years of professional experience to her practice. Emily aims to make the first step into therapy easier by creating a calm, welcoming space to begin talking.

In sessions she focuses on helping people name what feels hard and to notice patterns that keep problems repeating. She encourages practical, manageable steps so progress can feel real between meetings. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at helping clients feel clearer about choices and increase confidence.

Emily pays attention to how past hurts and attachment issues can shape current relationships. She also supports people dealing with caregiving strain, chronic pain or illness, body image concerns, or life-stage transitions such as divorce or midlife questioning. Communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame are other areas she helps people address.

Her approach is collaborative - she works with each person to set goals and decide what will help most. Sessions centre on listening, reflecting and trying out new ways of coping. The aim is to make everyday life more manageable and purposeful.

People who want to start simply need to select the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. From there they can schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How different approaches are used in online therapy

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques tend to focus on clear steps people can try and on understanding how thoughts, feelings and behaviour link together. One common approach helps people recognise and change unhelpful thinking patterns and build alternative ways of responding to stress and low mood. This can be useful for anxiety, depression and everyday stress.

Another helpful approach looks at how early relationships and attachment shape current interactions and emotional reactions. It helps people make sense of relationship difficulties, abandonment worries and repeating patterns in communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and will suggest ways of working that fit each person's needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as clarity grows about what helps.

Check which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. It also makes it possible to continue work with the same therapist when people move or travel, while keeping the focus on practical changes and coping skills.
