Bridging the gap between Therapy and Life Coaching
Who I Am
Hi, I’m Emily.
I spent my teenage years battling eating disorders, anxiety, depression, substance issues and family turmoil. I was in and out of hospitals and was considered a lost cause to most professionals.
Then one day in my twenties I woke up and said, “I can’t do this anymore” and threw myself into a self-regulated treatment where I overcame everything.
After 10 years of illness and 14 years of psychotherapy, I decided to dedicate my life to the possibility of helping others in the future. I studied a BSc in Psychology for 4 years at Goldsmiths University, and received a Postgraduate Certificate in Human Nutrition from St Marys University. Following this, I started undergoing training to become a triple accredited Life Coach along with studying counselling and trauma informed therapy; skills in which I plan to keep developing indefinitely.
My goal is to help you overcome struggles you may be facing. Coaching is a tool in which we work together to help you achieve your goals. Whether confidence issues, family struggles, relationship or friendship turmoil, suffering with teenage angst or the parents of, I have helped people through all circumstances- book a call in to see if we are the right fit.
How can Coaching help?
Are you stuck? Going through a transition? Struggling with relationships? Lacking in confidence? As a life coach we can work together to promote you to being your most authentic self, and reach your full potential.
Therapy is an incredible tool for exploring the past and understanding why we’re wired the way we are. It helps us make sense of what’s happened to us and how those experiences have shaped the person we are today. How we live — how we think, respond, communicate, and relate — is due to our childhood and early developmental years. Every conversation, interaction and inner thoughts are a result of the way we were raised. Whether those experiences and relationships were healthy or traumatic or fun or painful - they create who we are.
Therapy is a process that can take you from -5 to 0 but coaching is what can take you from 0 to +5. Coaching is about looking into the future, working out your goals, and how we can help you achieve them. It’s a powerful, tangible, and effective tool in helping you create the life you’ve always desired, or the one you don’t even know you want yet.
What People Are Saying
“Emily asks thought provoking questions to get to the root of the blockers holding me back in all areas of my life and challenges me to think differently in an empathetic and supportive way. She helps me put actionable steps in place, that feel achievable and within my capabilities. I’m super grateful for the support she provides and the process I’ve made since starting to work with her”
— K. Gordon Emily is a thoughtful and reflective coach. She supported me in working through a challenging situation with friends and finding a path forward that I felt comfortable with. If you’re feeling stuck, Emily could help you work through it”
- A. Patel “Some conversations change the way you see things. Working with Emily has been a series of those.
What sets her apart is the depth she brings to the work. She’s training simultaneously as a coach and a counsellor — not because she has to, but because she’s genuinely committed to showing up as fully as possible for the people she works with. That commitment shows in every conversation.
She’s easy to talk to, but don’t mistake that ease for superficiality. Her questions land somewhere real. They open things up rather than steer you in a direction — she holds the space and walks alongside you, rather than telling you where to go. It’s clear that she’s done her own inner work, and it makes her questioning feel both safe and surprisingly incisive.
If you’re navigating a period of uncertainty and want a thinking partner who will meet you with steadiness, skill, and genuine care — I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
— M. Earle-GalEmily supported me through a significant career change, at a time when I was struggling with imposter syndrome and a real lack of confidence stepping into a new industry.
Through our sessions, she helped me gain a much deeper understanding of my strengths, and more importantly, how my values shape my decisions and connect to the passion behind my work. That clarity has been invaluable.
As a result of working with Emily, I feel far more confident and secure in my decisions and my worth. I’m now able to step into a new environment and truly hold my own.
Emily is calm, supportive, and creates a genuinely safe space to explore whatever comes up. She has a natural ability to put you at ease straight away, and brings a warmth and empathy that makes you feel truly heard and understood.
If you’re looking for a coach who will truly listen, support you without judgement, and help you build confidence in yourself, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Emily.
