Emily Brearley

Currently, I only have availability Monday evenings. 

Currently, I am only offering 50 minute online/telephone sessions. However, I may be able to offer in-person sessions for a higher session rate. 

I provide weekly sessions which occur at the same time each week. I am able to be flexible to fit your needs in terms of longer term or shorter term work. Every 4-6 sessions I facilitate a check-in or brief review in order to ensure we are going in the direction that supports you and your goals. 

It's important to me that you feel empowered and able to communicate how you are finding sessions. I like to say if I say something that is particularly useful, then if you feel able, let me know. And, if I say something that is less helpful or useful, if you feel able, then let me know.

My private practice work is mainly talking therapy, however my M.A. in Dance/Movement Psychotherapy and Counselling from the U.S. enables me to provide a unique, creative and holistic support. 

I offer a warm, considerate space and use a person-centered approach and integrate different models of psychotherapy to fit your needs and comfort. Receiving therapeutic support can be daunting and my goal is to create a space of non-judgement in order to promote safety, trust, change and respite. I believe in each persons ability to grow and improve their quality of life and relationships. We can work together to explore and understand life events, transitions, and patterns which can lead to feeling stuck.

Clients attend my sessions for a variety of reasons: self-care, Anxiety, Depression, personal growth, additional support, burn-out, relationships, trauma, abandonment, life transitions work-related stress and bereavement.

Outside of private practice I have worked with children, teachers and parents for six years in various boroughs. Thus, I bring a wealth of understanding for parents and have been particularly passionate working with individuals going through the fertility journey, antenatal and postnatal support, and parenting.

The first session is slightly discounted at £40 if online. This session will feel slightly different as I will ask about a variety of areas of your life. I will take notes and fill in my own assessment form.
