Emma Spick, BACP

Emma Spick is a qualified counsellor who supports people from a wide range of backgrounds as they navigate the different challenges of being human. She is registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and completed a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling in 2022, a qualification that underpins her clinical work. Emma’s practice is primarily person-centred - she offers a listening, empathic presence that helps clients uncover their own answers while also drawing on other evidence-based techniques when appropriate to meet individual needs.

Daily life can feel overwhelming, and it is often difficult to hear one’s own voice in the rush of responsibilities and emotion. Emma helps clients create the space to reflect, process difficult feelings, and find firmer footing. Her aim is to provide a warm, welcoming, supportive and non-judgmental environment for anyone taking steps toward greater fulfilment and connection.

Emma has experience working with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and bereavement, depression, relationship issues, low confidence and self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Additional areas of focus include ageing and geriatric issues, guilt and shame, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and women’s issues. She looks forward to working with people who wish to explore change and build resilience.

Person-centred care and evidence-based approaches online

Emma Spick’s practice is grounded in person-centred work, which focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where clients are supported to explore their own thoughts and feelings. This approach helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, or the need to reconnect with their own values and goals.

In addition to person-centred care, Emma integrates other evidence-based techniques as needed to address issues such as trauma, grief, mood difficulties, and post-traumatic stress. These complementary methods are applied with the client’s goals in mind and tailored to specific concerns to support recovery and coping.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Emma works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods feel most helpful given their circumstances, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility - appointments can fit around work, family commitments, or mobility needs. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access support from home or another convenient location, while still working with a registered professional in a personalised way.
