About Emma

Emma Fleming works with stress, anxiety, relationships and self-esteem using talking therapies and practical techniques. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has six years' professional experience in the United Kingdom.

Emma offers focused support for people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, parenting challenges and intimacy-related issues. She also helps those facing career pressures, compassion fatigue, sleep problems and life transitions. Her practice includes work with LGBT clients and people managing long-term illness or caring responsibilities.

Her way of working is person-centred and straightforward. Sessions are led by the client’s concerns, with attention to how thoughts, values and behaviour interact. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and solution-focused work to build coping strategies and short-term goals.

Attachment-based ideas and mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice patterns in relationships and daily life. This can support those who struggle with abandonment, attachment issues, avoidant behaviour or difficulties around intimacy. Emma also addresses issues linked to adoption and foster care, blended family situations and body image concerns.

Her experience includes supporting people affected by discrimination, domestic violence and complex health or caregiving needs. Sessions aim to be practical and clear, with time spent on what the person wants to change and manageable steps towards those goals. To begin, clients follow the site’s matching process and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to remote counselling

Emma uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and practise actions that align with those values; this can be useful for anxiety, low mood and motivation. Attachment-based work focuses on understanding relationship patterns and how early connections affect current relationships, which can help with intimacy issues and attachment concerns.

Client-centred and mindfulness elements are used to create a steady, reflective space where the person leads the conversation and learns to notice thoughts and bodily reactions. The therapist will work collaboratively to find which mix of these approaches fits a person’s goals and preferences rather than imposing a single method.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around work or caring responsibilities and avoiding travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to attend from different locations and to schedule shorter check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available formats before booking to be clear about how you will meet.
