About Emily
Emily Chalder is a counsellor who brings six years of practice to her work with people feeling stuck or overwhelmed. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Emily aims to offer a calm, respectful space where people can talk about stress, grief, self-esteem and changes in life.
Emily uses a person-centred way of working, which means she follows what each person needs in the room. She listens without judging and adapts sessions to help people feel understood. Sessions focus on what matters to the client and on practical next steps when those are useful.
Her day-to-day work includes helping with anxiety, depression, sleep problems and parenting pressures. She also supports people dealing with trauma, relationship strain, compassion fatigue and career worries. Additional concerns she notes include ADHD, autism and body image.
Emily describes her role as one of support and empowerment. She uses straightforward language and gentle guidance to help people find direction. The aim is to build confidence and coping skills at a pace that suits each person.
People who prefer a warm, non-judgemental approach may find her style helpful. She invites clients to take the first step and to explore changes in a way that feels manageable. For practical details about session times and formats, please confirm current options before booking.
Person-centred care and online support
Emily works from a Client-Centred Therapy perspective, which means she listens carefully and follows the client’s lead. This approach focuses on understanding a person’s experience and building a trusting connection, which can help with anxiety, low mood and life transitions.A person-centred approach often aims to make people feel accepted and heard before moving on to practical steps. That way of working can help when dealing with grief, self-esteem issues, relationship strain and the stress of change. The therapist adapts to each person rather than imposing a fixed plan.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and try different ways of working to see what fits best. Clients and the therapist will decide together how sessions should progress.
The original profile does not specify which online formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to keep continuity during periods of change while focusing on the same person-centred conversation that shapes her in-person practice.
