About Emily Pemberton

Emily Pemberton is a psychotherapeutic counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of clinical experience. She trained at postgraduate level in Person-Centred therapy and has undertaken two years of study in Ecological Transactional Analysis, alongside a short course in Dialectical Behavior Therapy - often abbreviated as DBT. Emily combines these trainings with practical experience to support people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, and life transitions.

Her practice emphasises empathy, careful attention to detail, and gentle, considered reflections that help clients explore their experiences at a pace they set. Emily describes the therapeutic relationship as central to change, and she works to create an environment where clients can gradually unfurl difficult feelings and find relief and renewed agency. She also attends to related concerns such as attachment and abandonment issues, body image, chronic illness and pain, and isolation or loneliness.

Emily holds BACP, which refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She aims to be an effective and potent therapist who supports each person toward the way of living they want, offering steady presence and practical therapeutic tools alongside compassionate listening.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Emily works with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques and pace so therapy feels manageable and relevant.
