Welcome to Therapy with Emma Cohn.
I am an experienced psychotherapist and I have been working therapeutically with adults, children, young people, individually and in groups for over twenty years. I also offer supervision to other therapists. I have thorough training and experience of working with children and adolescents. I understand that children and adolescents may experience powerful emotions that they may struggle to understand, which can impact their general wellbeing. Due to my training, I can offer a solid understanding of how early childhood may have impacted an adult’s life. Furthermore, I feel able to offer valuable support to parents who are finding parenting challenging.
Seeking help can give people an opportunity to share thoughts and feelings with someone who is not directly involved in their lives. A trusting relationship between therapist and client is pivotal and I understand the importance of providing a safe, supportive, authentic and respectful space for my clients. If you or your child/adolescent are in search of therapy, please do get in touch and I will be happy to help.

The Therapeutic Journey
Both counselling and psychotherapy pave the way for individuals to better understand themselves, making sense of their emotions, thoughts, and behaviours. This introspective journey helps in identifying and reassessing core beliefs, providing insights into their impact on daily life, it also encourages exploration into persistent behavioural patterns and deepens understanding of interpersonal relationships.

Reasons to Seek Therapy
People come to therapy for various reasons—from navigating significant life changes like family breakdowns or bereavement, to managing mental health issues. Contrary to the misconception that therapy is only for those with severe issues, many of my clients are individuals coping with common life challenges.
