Emma Nixon Humanistic Integrative Counsellor London E8Emma Nixon:

Humanistic Integrative Counsellor (BACP)

Experiences from your past may be affecting you today, leaving you unsure how to move forward. As a result, you may be feeling anxious, depressed, or stuck. Maybe you are experiencing low self-esteem, struggling in your relationships or feeling a need to make changes. Therapy can be a useful way of looking at issues or patterns of behaviour that may be holding you back.

My Approach:
My name is Emma Nixon, I am an Integrative therapist which means I use different theories and approaches, depending on each person’s individual needs. These include but are not limited to, Transactional Analysis, Gestalt, person-centred and psychodynamic theories.

I can offer a safe, calm, relaxed, containing space where you can talk freely and where we can work together to explore what is going on for you and a way forward.

We will work collaboratively to explore your experiences, feelings, patterns of behaviour, relationship dynamics and beliefs that may be holding you back.

My aim is to help you connect with your feelings and to gain awareness and insights about yourself so that you can begin to make meaningful changes in your life and to move forward in a different way.

I work with a diverse range of people with a wide range of life experiences, issues and backgrounds. I have worked with issues such as trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, feeling stuck, low self-esteem, sexuality, grief and loss.

Getting started:
Choosing a therapist you feel comfortable with is really important. I offer a free, no-obligation introductory call to see if we are a good fit. This is an opportunity for you to tell me what has brought you to therapy, and I can tell you about how I work and answer any questions that you may have. This can be on the phone, or online.

Therapy can be long-term or short-term and we can discuss this as we go.

Availability:
I offer both in-person and online sessions. Please contact me for current availability.

Fees:
Sessions are £65. I also offer low-cost sessions through HQ’s Concessionary Rate service. Please contact me for more details.

Contact information:
Please feel free to email me at [email protected] for more information, or to schedule an introductory call. Further information can also be found on my website.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Should I Seek Therapy?

Many people, new to this type of help, believe that they need to be suffering from “mental illness” or serious “psychological problems”, or be in crisis in order for therapy and counselling to be appropriate for them. This is a common misconception; anyone can benefit from therapy when it comes to helping you deal with your personal feelings and problems, make positive changes in your life, and understand yourself better.

So what is therapy and counselling? If you’re new to this world then the first steps can sometimes be the most difficult. Therapy can be a very effective treatment for a whole range of personal problems covering areas from physical and emotional problems, different types of behavioural disorders, through to human sexuality issues and a host of wellbeing and complementary therapy techniques.

Any problem you have that is causing you concern, anxiety or distress is a valid and appropriate reason to reach out and find a therapist and talk to them about it. Far from something to be ashamed of, acknowledging your vulnerability and asking for help is a sign of maturity and strength.

If you feel that you have a desire and are committed to making changes in your life in order to overcome your current problems and achieve more long-term satisfaction, psychological wellbeing and personal fulfilment, then you are ready to seek therapy. We are here to help you work through a wide range of therapy issues that might be troubling you.

Will Information About Me Be Safe & Secure?

It is quite normal to be hesitant when it comes to sharing private and intimate information about yourself with a stranger. You may fear that you will receive judgment from your therapist, or that your therapist will share your details with others.

HQ Therapy Rooms takes your privacy and confidentiality very seriously. Our therapists are required to keep everything said in therapy sessions between you, just like your doctor is required to keep your records private.

For therapy to be effective, there must be unconditional trust built between you and your therapist, and this relies on a shared understanding of confidentiality. It applies to the outside world as well: it is standard practice for therapists not to acknowledge their clients if they run into them outside of the therapy rooms in order to help protect their client’s confidentiality. Read our full privacy policy for more information.

Can I Contact You For Advice About Getting Therapy?

Talking about your thoughts and feelings with a supportive therapist can often make you feel better and help you face your problems. It feels good to be listened to and to know that someone cares about you and wants to help. It is important that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and can build a trusting relationship to help you make positive changes in your life.

But how do you know what type of therapy is right for you? Taking the first steps in finding the right therapist can be the biggest hurdle for newcomers, so we have made it easy.
