Emma Harvey is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She has five years' experience supporting people through common mental health struggles. Emma works with adults facing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, anger and ADHD.
She also helps people navigate relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and eating-related issues. Emma favours a straightforward, collaborative style. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps that can make daily life easier.
Background and approach
She listens without judgement and works with each person to set clear goals for therapy. Her work draws on a mix of approaches. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and helps people test new habits.
Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of the work and builds a trusting working relationship. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills and mindfulness techniques can help with strong emotions and coping in the moment. Emma is experienced supporting people with additional concerns such as attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image and caregiver stress.
She also assists those dealing with chronic illness, cancer, blended-family pressures and complicated grief. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Therapy is delivered online by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions through the service.
Therapeutic approaches for online support
Emma uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression and stress. Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of each session and helps build a trusting working relationship so people feel heard and understood. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy offers practical skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress and improving interpersonal communication.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful in early sessions. Together they review progress and adjust the methods used so the work fits the person’s needs and pace.
Online therapy offers flexibility across formats. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can work when internet bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or need brief, on-the-go support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines and different time zones, while still working with registered or accredited professionals and experienced therapists.
