Emma Poxon, NCPS

Emma Poxon offers an open, non-judgemental space for people who are feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to start. They invite honest conversation about difficult thoughts and feelings. Emma aims to make it easier to talk and to help each person find what works for them.

Emma uses a person-centred approach that treats the client as the expert in their own life. Sessions focus on the individual's experience, with the therapist responding with empathy and acceptance rather than giving directive advice. This style can suit people who want to explore their feelings at their own pace.

Emma holds a BSc (Hons) Psychology and an MA in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling and Psychotherapy Practice. These qualifications combine scientific study with practice-based learning. With four years of experience, Emma draws on that background to listen closely and adapt sessions to each person.

Typical concerns addressed include stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, grief, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Emma also works with issues such as body image, chronic illness, dissociation, codependency and substance misuse. The approach is flexible to match short-term or longer-term needs.

Emma offers sessions in English from the United Kingdom and does not take international clients. People connect by video, phone, live chat or text messaging and can choose the format that best fits their schedule. Before booking, clients are asked to send a message so Emma and they can check fit and timing.

Person-centred care and online therapy options

Emma primarily uses person-centred or Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on the person's own experience. The therapist offers a calm, accepting presence and encourages people to lead the conversation so they can explore what matters most to them. This approach can help with issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and coping with change.

Emma's way of working is collaborative. During the first sessions they will check what you hope to get from therapy and discuss whether the person-centred approach feels like a good fit. If needed, they will review how sessions are going and adapt the way they work to match your goals and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone sessions can be simpler if bandwidth is limited or when a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter updates or people who prefer not to use audio or video. These choices can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and daily routines.
