About Emily
Emily Bolland offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or struggles with attention. She writes plainly and listens closely to what matters most. Sessions aim to make problems feel more manageable, one step at a time.
Emily is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She brings six years of direct practice experience in mental health settings. Her background includes work in community mental health teams and neurodevelopmental assessment services, so she is familiar with a broad range of presenting difficulties.
Background and approach
Her work focuses on practical ways to reduce distress while looking at deeper patterns that keep problems recurring. Emily uses evidence-informed approaches that help people notice thoughts and feelings, and then try out different ways of responding. She also pays attention to relationships and past experiences that shape current difficulties.
Common areas she supports include trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem and ADHD. She also helps people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, eating concerns, chronic illness and dissociation among other struggles. The aim is to build clearer coping steps and a greater sense of control.
Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat or messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a session according to the therapist’s availability.

Online support
Finding the right mix of approaches is a shared task. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods, and adjust what they do together. Clients take part in choosing techniques and deciding what feels useful as therapy progresses.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit sessions around work, study and family commitments. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to use a camera. These options increase flexibility while keeping the focus on practical steps and ongoing support.
