About Emma
Emma Manthy is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years' experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD and codependency. She also supports people dealing with grief, compassion fatigue and employment-related strain.
Emma combines talking therapy with coaching skills and psychoeducational work. Sessions focus on practical steps and ways to notice patterns that leave someone putting others first. She listens for how abandonment, attachment or control issues show up in daily life. Conversations often include exploring boundaries, communication problems and setting small, achievable goals.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred principles. That means noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, testing unhelpful thinking patterns, and keeping the person’s own values at the centre of decisions. Mindfulness techniques are used to build moment-by-moment awareness when helpful.
Emma has also delivered workshops and wellbeing coaching for organisations over the past eight years. That background shapes a practical style that looks for clear tools people can use between sessions. She explains ideas in plain language and uses exercises to practise new ways of relating.
Sessions are offered in English and operate within the frameworks expected of BACP practitioners in the UK. Prospective clients are asked to follow the site's booking flow and complete a short matching questionnaire before arranging a first appointment.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Emma commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. Client-Centred work emphasises an open, non-directive conversation that follows the client’s priorities and experiences. CBT looks at unhelpful thinking patterns and tests practical strategies to change behaviours and moods.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Emma will review a person’s needs, goals and preferences and suggest ways of working. That often means trying a technique and adjusting it based on how helpful it feels in day-to-day life, so the process is collaborative rather than fixed.
Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel. They also let people use shorter check-ins, avoid being on camera when preferred, or meet at times that suit a busy day. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and mindfulness practices for remote sessions so tools are useful between meetings.
