My Approach

My approach is integrative, which means I adapt how we work to you rather than following a fixed method. Together we explore the patterns, relationships and experiences that shape how you feel today, so that you can relate to yourself and others with more ease and understanding.
Alongside psychodynamic, existential and transpersonal work, I use Heart and Mind, a model I've developed over many years. It helps you notice when the mind's busy, often critical voice is running the show, and reconnect with your deeper sense of what you feel and what matters to you.
Your first session
We begin with an initial consultation, a relaxed chance to talk about what has brought you to therapy, ask any questions, and see whether working together feels right. There's no obligation to continue. If we go ahead, we meet weekly for 50 minutes at a regular time, in person near Harley Street or online.

I also see clients at my practice in Jericho, Oxford. You can find out more at www.emmadashwoodcounsellingpsychotherapyoxford.com.

About Me

I'm an integrative psychotherapist with over 20 years' experience, beginning in the NHS. I'm accredited with the UKCP and BACP, and I work with individuals and couples from my consulting room at 37 Queen Anne Street, just off Harley Street in Marylebone, and online.
People come to me with anxiety, depression, loss, relationship difficulties, low self-worth, and times of change or uncertainty. My work draws on psychodynamic, existential and transpersonal traditions, and on Heart and Mind, a model I've developed to help clients tell apart the busy, critical voice of the mind from their deeper sense of self.
Sessions are 50 minutes, weekly, and begin with an initial consultation. I also offer clinical supervision for therapists, and therapy and mentoring for university students.
