About Emily
Emily Groves helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low self‑esteem. She also supports those dealing with depression, parenting pressures, compassion fatigue and concerns around intimacy and ADHD. Emily uses straightforward conversation to help people feel heard and make practical changes.
She aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be named. Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and on small steps that can be tried between meetings.
Background and approach
Emily encourages people to set realistic goals and notices progress as it happens. With three years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she works from a person-centred stance. That means the client’s priorities and pace shape the work, rather than a fixed recipe.
Emily draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations and to offer practical coping tools. She has particular experience supporting people coping with attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family issues, body image and communication problems. Other areas she helps with include caregiver strain, cancer-related distress, domestic violence, and reactions to natural or human-caused disasters.
Sessions are delivered in English and are based in the United Kingdom. People are invited to take the first step when they feel ready. Emily’s style is warm and direct, aiming to help people feel steadier and more able to manage everyday demands.

How Emily works online
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust them as progress is made, so the process is collaborative.
If you are considering online work, please confirm the specific session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break. They also let people attend from different locations within the same country, which can help when balancing work, healthcare appointments or childcare commitments.
