About Emily
Dr. Emily Fozard is a counsellor and a member of BACP and NCPS with nine years of professional experience. She works with grief, stress, anxiety, depression and self-esteem concerns. She also helps people facing life changes and family difficulties.
Emily uses a client-centred approach. That means sessions focus on the person in front of her and their experience. She treats people as the experts on their own lives and helps them draw on their existing strengths.
Her work covers a broad range of concerns. These include coping with chronic illness, cancer, chronic pain and disability. She also supports people through divorce and separation, issues around pregnancy and childbirth, and end-of-life and hospice matters.
She offers practical, straightforward conversations about difficult feelings. That can include addressing isolation, jealousy, emptiness and questions about life purpose. She also helps with prejudice and discrimination related distress and with young adult issues.
Sessions aim to make challenges more manageable. Emily listens, reflects and helps people consider next steps. People who want to start are invited to use the service matching process to arrange a first session and to confirm the session format that suits them.
Client-centred work and online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's perspective. The counsellor listens without directing the outcome, helps reflect feelings and supports people to use their own strengths. This approach often suits grief, anxiety and life-change concerns where someone needs space to make sense of events.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss what feels most helpful, consider the person's goals and preferences, and agree a way of working together. Decisions are collaborative and can be revisited as things change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, health appointments or family duties. It also lets people choose shorter check-ins or sessions without being on camera if that helps. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these practical ways of working to help sessions fit into daily life.
