About Emma

Emma Manthy is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with nine years' experience. She also practised as a Health and Wellbeing Coach for eight years and runs psychoeducational workshops for organisations and the public. Emma works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem and relationship concerns.

She uses straightforward talk and practical techniques in sessions. That can mean looking at thoughts and behaviours, learning new coping skills, and using mindfulness exercises to reduce reactivity. Sessions are shaped around what the person brings and what feels useful in day-to-day life.

Emma draws on a mix of approaches, including cognitive behavioural ideas, acceptance and commitment methods, dialectical behaviour tools and client-centred listening. She aims to combine skills work with space to make sense of difficult experiences. This can help people who get stuck in patterns of frustration or who find anger builds over time.

Her background in coaching and workshop delivery means she often offers practical strategies that people can try between sessions. That might include short exercises to manage stress at work, techniques to calm intense feelings, or ways to improve communication when arguments begin.

People looking for help with grief, depression, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, chronic illness or issues around intimacy and identity may also find areas Emma can address. She works in English and practices in the UK. Before booking, confirm the current session formats available.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and build actions that match their values. It can be useful for managing anger that comes from avoidance, guilt or ongoing stress. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical techniques to change reactive patterns. That can help with workplace frustration and repeated arguments. Mindfulness Therapy offers short exercises to steady attention and reduce impulsive responses, which many people find useful when anger flares.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to try methods and see what fits their goals and circumstances. Sessions can combine elements from different approaches so the work stays practical and relevant.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many clients find digital sessions let them practise skills in their usual environment and bring real-life situations into therapy for discussion.
