Emma Fleming, BACP

Emma Fleming is a counsellor who uses practical, person-centred methods to help people facing stress, anxiety and life changes. She holds BACP registration and has six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Emma aims to offer a calm space where people can talk about what matters to them and work out manageable steps forward.

She commonly helps people with relationship and family concerns, low self-esteem, depression and grief. She also supports people dealing with addiction, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger and career stress. Emma has experience with issues related to parenting, caregiving and ageing and geriatric issues, and can talk through concerns linked to ADHD and neurodiversity.

Emma draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice thoughts and choose valued actions. She uses attachment-based and client-centred approaches to focus on the relationship in the room and the person’s own goals. Solution-focused techniques help set clear, practical steps to try between sessions.

In sessions she listens without judgment and helps people break problems into small, doable parts. She encourages simple experiments and plans that fit everyday life, rather than long lists of tasks. Her style tends to be warm and direct, with an emphasis on what a person wants to be able to do differently.

Emma works with people from diverse backgrounds, including those who have experienced discrimination or domestic violence. She accepts international clients and works in English. To begin, follow the site’s Start Therapy process and complete the matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Emma's approaches translate to online counselling

Emma often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT is practical and suits worries about life changes, stress and anxiety. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and to improve how people relate to others.

These approaches are used collaboratively. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different strategies together to see what fits. Deciding which method to use is part of the work, and plans can change as needs and preferences become clearer.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please check which options are available before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people find mindfulness exercises and ACT experiments work well between sessions, which helps the work carry into everyday routines.
