About Emma

Emma Mansfield NCPS is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, self-esteem and trauma and abuse, among other concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.

Emma uses straightforward conversation to help people think about what matters to them and what they want to change. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centred work to support practical steps. Sessions often include noticing thoughts, testing small changes and practising new ways of responding.

Her background is in health, social care and education, and she brings that practical experience into sessions. That means she pays attention to everyday pressures like work, caregiving and family roles while helping people manage emotions. She recognises how grief, loss and change can affect routines, mood and relationships.

Emma helps people develop manageable plans rather than promising quick fixes. Conversations focus on what someone can try between sessions and how to notice what is working. She also uses brief, solution-focused techniques when a clear short-term goal is needed.

People who want help with confidence, coping with life changes, or reducing avoidance often find this practical approach useful. Emma explains techniques in plain language and encourages small realistic steps. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and book an initial session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that reflect those values. It helps with ongoing anxiety and avoiding situations that matter to someone.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thinking. It is commonly used for stress, anxiety and low mood to build different habits of thinking and behaviour.

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises respectful listening and helping a person lead the work. It supports people who want a calmer space to talk through difficult feelings and decide next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made.

If you prefer online sessions, check the current session options on the booking page before you arrange a first appointment. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and between-session tasks to suit an online meeting.
