About Emily
Emily Bolland is a BACP counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress and mood difficulties. She works with adults on issues like depression, low self-esteem and ADHD-related challenges. Emily communicates in clear, everyday language and aims to make sessions feel calm and straightforward.
Emily draws on six years of clinical experience in community mental health and neurodevelopmental assessment settings. She has supported people dealing with trauma, abuse and complex mental health difficulties.
Background and approach
Her background includes research into suicidal thoughts and behaviours with young adults during doctoral study in psychology. In sessions she combines practical strategies with space to reflect on past patterns. That means there may be work on noticing thinking and behaviour, alongside looking at how early relationships shape current feelings.
The emphasis is on small, realistic steps and understanding how difficulties fit into a person’s life. Emily offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different needs. She speaks English and sees clients in the United Kingdom.
International clients are not currently accepted. Cost varies with location and therapist availability and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist’s availability.
How Emily's approaches work online
Emily uses evidence-based techniques that focus on present difficulties and underlying patterns. One approach helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours through practical exercises and small experiments, which suits anxiety, phobias and mood problems. Another approach pays attention to life history and relationships, helping people understand why certain feelings keep returning and how to try different responses.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which methods to try based on the person’s goals and what feels most helpful. Sessions often combine short practical tasks with time to reflect and process experiences so therapy stays relevant and manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video lets people see facial cues and build rapport, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or when writing helps to organise thoughts. These options aim to make regular contact more possible and to accommodate different communication preferences.
