About Emma
Counsellor and member of BACP with nine years' experience, Emma Manthy works with people in the United Kingdom on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues and other concerns. She also has a background as a health and wellbeing coach and runs psychoeducational workshops for organisations and the public.
Emma uses straightforward talking therapy alongside coaching skills. Sessions are practical and focused on what someone wants to change. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Client-Centred work and mindfulness techniques.
Her work often addresses emotional overwhelm, low mood, relationship difficulties and challenges linked to neurodiversity. She also supports people dealing with grief, anger, eating or body-image struggles, chronic illness or caring strain. Emma lists ADHD, bipolar and compassion fatigue among her areas of focus.
In sessions she helps people notice patterns, try out different ways of coping and set small, clear goals. Therapy can include skills practice, reflective talk and short exercises between meetings. Emma adapts the pace to the person sitting in front of her.
She offers help in English and delivers workshops as part of her practice. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session.
Therapeutic approaches used in remote counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and difficulties tied to life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques to change patterns that maintain depression or anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will work with the client to decide which methods fit best for their aims and preferences. This is a collaborative conversation and can be reviewed as work progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so check the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a working day or to avoid travel. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed and for using video or phone to suit the person's circumstances. Registered or accredited professionals often use these options to help therapy fit with everyday life.
