Emma Longhurst, our BACP-registered Counsellor/Mental Health Practitioner, provides comprehensive therapeutic services for individuals seeking both short and long-term therapy. With a strong foundation in Person-Centered Counseling and Psychotherapy, she employs an integrative approach that specialises in Trauma-Informed Narrative Therapy. This approach involves engaging deeply with clients' stories, exploring events in chronological order, and systematically addressing negative associations and responses. It is particularly effective in addressing the effects of complex trauma arising from a range of sources, including sexual abuse, domestic violence, harmful attachment experiences, and abusive institutions and systems.

‘My therapeutic approach prioritises the client's comfort and establishes a safe space for healing and growth. By working at a pace and depth that is suitable for each individual, I aim to facilitate lasting change in their lives. Whether in-person or online, I offer sessions that provide a supportive environment where clients can feel heard, valued, and empowered within the therapeutic relationship.

I specialise in various areas, including but not limited to abuse, addiction, anger management, anxiety, bereavement, child-related issues, cultural issues, depression, identity, stress, pregnancy-related issues, relationships, self-esteem, self-harm, spiritual abuse, spirituality, and trauma. My expertise in these areas allows me to tailor therapy to meet the unique needs and goals of each client, promoting their overall well-being and personal development.’
