Emily Foord, BACP

Emily Foord is a BACP-registered counsellor (MBACP) based in the United Kingdom with 6 years of experience supporting adults through a wide range of emotional and life challenges. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process, offering steady, non-judgemental support while helping clients explore what they are feeling, what they need, and what meaningful change might look like for them. Rather than directing or prescribing, she works alongside each person to help them find their own way forward, at a pace that feels manageable and respectful.

Emily believes that having someone reflect emotional experiences with care and clarity can strengthen self-compassion and resilience. Her aim is to provide space to pause, make sense of patterns, and reconnect with a more authentic and fulfilling way of living, especially during times of stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship strain, or major life transitions.

Her background includes a BSc in Psychology, with specialist study in addictive behaviours, neuro-developmental disorders, psychopathology, and behavioural genetics, as well as a Diploma in Integrative Counselling. Emily has worked in residential addiction and mental health treatment delivering group and individual therapy and psycho-educational sessions, and has also provided counselling within the charitable sector. She has undertaken further training in radically open dialectical behavioural therapy, motivational interviewing, and nutrition, bringing a broad, evidence-based perspective to the work of changing emotional and behavioural patterns without having to do it alone.
