About Emma

Emma Mansfield is a counsellor who uses a mix of practical therapies to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. She holds the NCPS credential and is based in the United Kingdom. Emma aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space so people can talk honestly about what they are going through.

She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and client-centred work to tailor sessions to each person. That means helping people notice unhelpful thoughts, try small behaviour changes and clarify what matters to them. Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques are also used when they suit a person’s goals.

Emma has four years of experience working across health, social care and education settings. She has supported people with grief, relationship strain, carer stress and the emotional impact of long-term conditions. Her additional interests include adoption and foster care, attachment issues, caregiver stress and managing compassion fatigue.

In sessions she offers a calm, realistic style and uses humour where it helps. She encourages clear goals and practical steps so people can measure progress. Emma asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted. Fees vary with location and therapist availability, and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Emma’s approaches work in online therapy

Emma commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT focuses on accepting difficult thoughts while committing to actions that fit a person’s goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is also part of her work and looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviour link together; it uses practical exercises to change patterns that cause distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then try approaches that fit the person’s needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is tracked.

The main practical benefit of online sessions is flexibility for fitting therapy into daily life, such as arranging appointments around work or caregiving. If you need clarity on session formats, please confirm the options before booking so you know what is offered. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt tools like brief check-ins, mindfulness practices and homework tasks to suit online sessions and everyday routines.
