Emma McArthur, BACP

Emma McArthur draws on clinical training in psychology, counselling, psychoeducational groupwork and cognitive behavioural therapy to provide tailored, evidence-informed support. She combines these methods into an integrative approach that is shaped collaboratively with each person, focusing on practical strategies alongside deeper exploration of personal history and present experience.

As an integrative cognitive behavioural therapist, Emma emphasises personal growth and the development of inner resources. She works with clients to identify strengths and coping skills, supporting them to recognise patterns that may be unhelpful and to experiment with alternative ways of responding. This process often creates shifts in perspective that make it possible to reconsider long-held beliefs and bring present values into closer alignment with daily choices.

Emma holds the BACP credential, indicating membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and uses that foundation to guide collaborative, evidence-based care. In therapy she offers a non-judgmental listening space where people can explore their experiences at a pace that feels right for them. Within a supportive therapeutic relationship she helps clients consider how they are currently coping, explore new strategies, and make adaptations that support growth and movement toward their goals.

If a client chooses to work with her, Emma aims to provide steady support throughout the counselling process, assisting people to find practical and personal ways forward that fit their life and values.
