Meet the team

Emma understands that behaviours such as self-harm, suicide attempts, substance use, and other impulsive actions often emerge as ways to cope with overwhelming emotions or difficult life experiences. These behaviours act as protective strategies—like a plaster over a deeper wound. While they may offer temporary relief, true healing comes from gently taking off the plaster and exploring and addressing the underlying issues. Therapy provides a space to begin this process, helping you understand what’s really going on beneath the surface and work towards lasting change.

With over a decade of experience in both the NHS and private sector, Emma has worked across a range of inpatient and community mental health settings. Her professional background also includes senior management roles in a large blue-chip retailer, giving her a broad and versatile perspective.

Qualifications / Training:

• MSc Integrative Psychotherapy – Metanoia Institute (accredited by Middlesex University)

• Postgraduate Diploma in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) – Bangor University / BIDBT

• BSc (Hons) Nursing: Mental Health

Emma is also a clinical supervisor having completed certification with British Isles DBT and Canterbury University

Her toolkit includes DBT, CBT, and good old-fashioned psychotherapy—used with compassion and a healthy dose of curiosity.

Agata is passionate about our me & ADHD programme and is also a co-facilitator in our DBT groups. Agata is also our team lead for young people from age 12.
