About

About Emma

Emma Fleming is a counsellor who draws on six years of practice to support people facing stress, anxiety and relationship strains. She uses a calm, practical approach to help parents and individuals tackle everyday pressures and emotional pain. She helps people sort through family conflict and parenting challenges in straightforward sessions.

Emma pays attention to grief, trauma and issues arising from discrimination. She also works with those coping with low self-esteem, motivation problems, addictions and sleep difficulties.

Background and approach

Emma blends evidence-informed methods with a person-focused way of working. Sessions are conversational and aim to make talking about hard things easier. She encourages clients to name what matters to them and to try small, manageable steps between meetings.

Her background includes supporting people affected by domestic violence and those navigating major life changes. Emma also offers help around attachment-related concerns, ADHD, and the complexities of blended family situations. She listens for patterns that feel stuck and helps clients test new ways of relating.

People can expect practical tools alongside reflective conversation. Emma explains techniques in simple terms and adjusts them to each client’s situation. She aims to create a non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be aired and understood.

Online support

How Emma’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values. It focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and building practical habits rather than trying to remove every uncomfortable feeling. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand connection issues and practise different ways of relating that feel safer and more connected. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emma will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will try methods together to see what fits. That collaborative process means the plan can change as the client learns what helps most. Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let people speak face to face when deeper conversation is needed. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a simpler check-in. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter, more flexible ways to reflect between sessions or to manage pressing moments. These options are intended to increase access and convenience for people juggling parenting, work and other commitments.
