About Emily
Emily Pemberton is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting strain, low self‑esteem and life changes. She works with adults who want clearer thinking, steadier mood and more manageable day-to-day coping. Emily uses a calm, attentive style and lets each person set the pace of sessions.
She trained with a post‑graduate diploma in Person‑Centred therapy and holds BACP membership. That background shapes her focus on listening, empathy and honest reflection rather than a one-size-fits-all programme. She also studied Dialectical Behaviour Therapy techniques and transactional ideas to broaden the ways she supports people.
In the room she aims to create straightforward, warm conversation. Emily pays close attention to what matters to each person and offers practical ways to handle overwhelm, anger or relationship tensions. Sessions may include skills for managing strong emotions and time spent talking through patterns that keep problems repeating.
Emily has five years' experience as a psychotherapeutic counsellor. Her work covers issues such as trauma and abuse, ADHD, body image, chronic illness and feelings of isolation. She emphasises pacing therapy to match each person's readiness to change and to build steady progress.
People choose her when they want a steady presence while working through hard feelings. She encourages realistic steps and small wins so daily life becomes easier to manage. If you want a thoughtful, person-focused approach, Emily offers that steady, practical support.
How Emily uses person-centred and DBT approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely, accepting where a person is and helping them set the pace. It helps people who need a steady, non-judgemental space to sort their thoughts, work through difficult feelings and build confidence. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, or DBT, offers practical skills for handling intense emotions, managing anger and reducing anxiety. Those skills can be useful when life feels overwhelming or when someone needs tools to cope day to day.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily intends to work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means checking in about what helps, trying things out, and adjusting the plan as needed so sessions feel useful and relevant.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking. The practical benefits often include fitting appointments into a busy week, avoiding travel time and keeping sessions short or regular to match work and family routines. Online work can make it easier to practise emotion regulation skills between meetings and to focus on specific strategies such as DBT techniques or person-centred reflection without rearranging your day.
