Emma's Approach

Emma enjoys working with children, adolescents, young adults and parents. She is experienced in diagnosing Autism, ADHD, learning difficulties and other neurodivergent presentations. She believes in a neuroaffirmative approach to diagnosis and support, whereby assessments assist in understanding of self, lead to acceptance, compassion and ultimately celebration of individual differences.

Emma is a client-focused therapist who concentrates on the individual needs of each client and tailors her treatment approach accordingly. She is passionate about helping young people and families reach their potential, feel supported and empowered to be the best version of themselves they can be. She utilises a range of approaches including but not limited to; acceptance and commitment therapy, schema therapy, solution-focussed therapy and attachment-based therapy.
