Emily Howes

I offer weekly psychotherapy and counselling sessions both online and in person at 85 Wimpole Street, ten minutes' walk from Oxford Circus tube.

Whatever the reason you choose to come to therapy, I offer a warm, relational approach in a space of absolute privacy.

As an existential therapist, I work from your experience, rather than through any one predefined framework. We look at your values, your relationships, your broader world, and your inherited ideas and ways of being.

The stories we tell ourselves about our lives define us. They can both empower and trap us. I offer a place to explore the narratives we live within - both those we create ourselves, and those which are created for us by others and the world.

My practice is LGBTQ+ friendly, sex-positive and kink-aware. I am interested in supporting those in alternative lifestyles, as well as those experiencing sexual difficulties. I also hold a particular interest in working with bereavement and loss.

I have clinical experience both within the NHS and within low cost community organisations. I hold a Masters in Existential Psychotherapy from Regent’s University, London, and a Certificate of Higher Education in Psychodynamic Counselling from Birkbeck University. My first degree was a BA in English with First Class Honours from Cambridge University. I am a member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) in advanced clinical training. I am a Registered Member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), and a member of the Society for Existential Analysis. I adhere fully to both the BACP and UKCP ethical codes, to which I am bound by membership.

A first session, online or in person, is a good way for us to get a sense of each other and how it might be to work together.

If we feel there’s a fit, and you would like to go ahead, we then move to regular weekly sessions. We can agree on a set number of sessions to begin with, or keep it open, depending on what you would prefer.

I also offer a block of 6 or 12 sessions for clients who have suffered a bereavement, or for whom a historic bereavement still causes significant distress.
