About Emily

Emily Chalder is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and life changes. She also supports those coping with sleep problems, parenting strains, career worries, anger and related concerns.

Her background is in a person-centred way of working. That means sessions focus on the person's concerns and priorities. The counsellor listens, reflects, and helps people make sense of what they are feeling.

In sessions she uses straightforward conversation to help clients notice patterns and try new ways of responding. Expect practical conversation about everyday situations, like arguments at work or home, rumination that keeps you awake, or ways to reduce strain from caring roles.

Emily pays attention to how feelings show up in the body and in behaviour. She will work with you on manageable steps to handle strong emotions and reduce reactive responses. This can include looking at triggers, practising different responses, and building small routines that ease stress.

People come to her for help with anger that feels hard to control, or for resentment that builds over time. She also supports those facing trauma, relationship strain, or the effects of grief and loss. If you want practical, person-focused sessions that aim to change how you handle difficult moments, she may be a fit.

How Emily uses person-centred work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience and what they want to change. It involves attentive listening, reflecting back what the client says, and helping them find their own solutions. This approach is helpful for stress, anger, low self-esteem and life transitions because it centres on each person's priorities. Working this way online means the counsellor and client check what feels most useful and adjust as they go. The therapist will discuss goals and try different ways of working together, deciding collaboratively which approach fits the client’s needs and preferences. Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work or caring responsibilities and can reduce travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or longer sessions for deeper issues. Registered or accredited professionals using remote sessions can still focus on practical skills, coping strategies for anger, and routines that help reduce reactivity. If you prefer to explore how that might work day-to-day, bring those concerns to your first booking conversation.
