Please meet our team
My name is Emily Pitman and I am a fully qualified Supervisor & Integrative Counsellor. Being an Integrative Therapist enables me to ‘tailor’ the sessions to support your wants, expectations and needs. I specialise in Relationship Issues, Anxiety and Depression. The emotions that you may be experiencing at this time can leave you feeling lost, confused and helpless within your own being. I provide help to individuals who are seeking a kind, confidential and supportive therapeutic relationship. Together we can build and establish your foundations and begin to understand and accept those events that have brought you to this page.
Sessions last for 50 minutes with the option of being weekly or fortnightly. I provide an environment whereby clients feel confident, comfortable and trusting to talk openly and share and explore issues that may be troubling them. This presents clients with the invaluable tools to cope, develop skills, explore self-development and create authenticity throughout the counselling process.
Depending on your presenting issues, I am able to use a wide variety of techniques, for example, but not limited to: Person- Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Transactional Analysis (TA) Solution-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Existential Therapy, Couples Counselling, Sensate Focus Therapy (Intimacy related issues), Creative Therapy & Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP).
