Emily Foord, BACP

Emily Foord is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, parenting strains, relationship and family concerns, low mood and a range of other everyday pressures. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and draws on previous work in residential addiction and mental health settings. That background includes group and one-to-one work, plus psycho-educational sessions. Her training and practice have involved motivational interviewing and approaches informed by dialectical ideas.

Emily helps people notice patterns that get in the way of day-to-day life. She talks through behaviours and emotions, and explores how past experiences shape present choices. Conversations tend to focus on practical changes and clearer ways of communicating with others at home and at work.

Where addiction, compulsive behaviour or parenting strain are present, she brings experience from residential treatment and charitable counselling. That experience informs how she supports people with process addictions, compulsions, and the knock-on effects those issues can have on relationships and family life.

People who come to her for help with anger, shame, attachment or abandonment often work on building steadier routines and clearer boundaries. Sessions may include reflective exercises, motivational techniques and skills drawn from dialectical approaches to manage strong emotions and urges.
