About Emily
Emily Foord is a counsellor who uses practical, evidence-based approaches to help people manage anxiety, stress and related concerns. She works collaboratively and respects each person’s pace, aiming to make therapy a clear, manageable step toward feeling better. Emily holds BACP accreditation and brings six years of practice in mental health and addiction settings.
Emily draws on her background in psychology and integrative counselling to tailor sessions to each person.
Background and approach
She focuses on breaking unhelpful patterns, improving communication, and building self-compassion. Typical topics include anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship and family problems, and issues with self-esteem. Sessions include structured tools and reflective conversation.
Practical techniques are paired with moments to reflect and make sense of feelings. Conversations might cover triggers, coping strategies, and small changes that make daily life easier. Her experience includes work in residential addiction and mental health services, plus charitable counselling.
That mix means she is used to offering both group-style and one-to-one support, and to guiding people through transitions such as pregnancy, recovery, or career change. Emily offers therapy in English for people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Therapy is delivered through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
How evidence-based techniques work online
Emily uses structured, evidence-based methods alongside open conversation to address anxiety, addiction-related behaviours and relationship stresses. One approach focuses on identifying patterns that keep problems going and replacing them with practical coping steps. Another approach emphasises emotional regulation skills and helps people notice and change unhelpful reactions to stress and panic. These techniques are straightforward and aimed at producing small, steady improvements.Choosing the right method is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and day-to-day realities and then try approaches that suit each person. That collaborative process means methods can be adjusted as therapy progresses so people find what helps them most.
Online therapy offers real flexibility. Video calls are useful for a full face-to-face feeling and deeper conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a check-in fits better into a busy day. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit shorter updates, quick reflections between sessions, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and recovery commitments, while still using the same practical techniques and collaborative approach.
