About Emma
Emma Manthy is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, anger, low self-esteem, and a range of other issues including ADHD and relationship strain.
She also works as a health and wellbeing coach and runs psychoeducational workshops for organisations and the public. That experience informs how she plans sessions and designs practical tools for everyday use. Emma keeps explanations straightforward and focuses on actionable steps rather than jargon.
In sessions she draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred work, with mindfulness and DBT skills used where helpful. Those methods are used to help people notice thought patterns, practise manageable changes, and build coping skills for difficult moments.
Emma often helps people sort out specific problems like communication issues, codependency, body image concerns, grief, and managing chronic pain alongside mental health challenges. She also offers support around neurodiversity topics including autism and Asperger Syndrome and related attachment or abandonment worries.
Her background in coaching and workshop design means she often combines brief skill-building with longer conversations about values and choices. Sessions aim to be practical and collaborative, with time given to learn skills and reflect on what works next.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and encourages action that follows personal values. It can be useful for persistent anxiety and for living alongside long-term difficulties.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviours. It is practical and often used for anxiety, phobias and mood concerns by breaking problems into manageable steps.
Client-centred work places the person’s own perspective at the heart of sessions, offering space to talk things through and make sense of choices. This approach supports people who need time to reflect rather than immediate problem-solving.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with the client to decide which approaches feel most useful, adapting over time based on the person’s goals and preferences.
Confirm available session formats before booking, as the profile does not specify which online options are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday or evening, avoid travel time, and use shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats can reduce the need to be on camera or allow simpler audio-only conversations, which helps people choose what suits their routines.
