Emma Barty

I am a qualified Level 7 (Masters degree level) transpersonal art counsellor, bereavement, online and spiritual counsellor. I offer  online counseling only using a holistic approach through a variety of modalities. Talking therapy, art & crafts, movement, visualization/meditation, EFT(emotional freedom technique, mindfulness techniques, yoga & chakra dancing. 

I have experience working with Adults & Children & young people with mild mental health issues, physical & learning disabilities, bereavement, bullying,  trauma & abuse, ADHD & ASD.

I have previously worked for the NHS and Cruse Bereavement services.

My clients are offered a safe space to be heard as well as hands-on image-making, other creative activities, and dialogue. I will be there to support you in your process of recovery, improvement or to come to terms with those things that cannot be changed.  We will have an ongoing conversation throughout the processes with regard to the counseling itself and the impact it’s having, to ensure a safe and secure environment for your engagement in your personal process.

 I love working with clients through a variety of modalities such as;

Talking therapy, 

Chat or IM/Video/Email/Telephone or VOIP

 Art and crafts,

Visualization, imagination, and meditation,

Emotional Freedom Technique/Thought Field Therapy (also known as Tapping)

Mindfulness techniques 

Yoga 

Chakra Dancing

Your first session will be about why you are looking for therapy; what you want to achieve from the therapy, and agreeing how you and I are going to work together. 

 We will go through a number of questions to help decide whether we will both be comfortable working together and to check that you can be offered the most appropriate support. 

(If the answer is no I can then refer you to a more appropriate service.)

If the answer is yes, then we will discuss confidentiality, times, dates and length of counselling, price of the sessions, how I work & my qualifications, and safeguarding. 

You will also be able to ask me any questions that you may have about counselling and the process.

If you are happy to go ahead with the counselling we will then co-create an agreement together.
