Emma Fogden Counselling in Chiswick & Ealing, West London

COUPLES

"We had couples’ therapy with Emma.  From the very first it was a comfortable, safe space where we could explore what had gone wrong.  Weekly ‘homework’ helped us to focus and think about pertinent things which may not have occurred to us otherwise.  Emma fosters openness, picks up on clues to explore issues in depth and knows when just to listen.  Not my usual comfort zone at all, but helpful and really worked for us."

I am a high achieving woman, and looking from the outside,  had my life sorted on all levels. I was about to get married.  Very quickly it became apparent that those issues were threatening to cause my relationship, and friends and family, to collapse.  We needed urgent couples therapy! Emma is a very professional, insightful therapist who was able to help us unpeel the wall paper, identify the deep cracks and help us repair them, rather than plaster over them.  She helped us see each other’s flaws in a nonjudgmental way, be comfortable with vulnerabilities, communicate in new ways and gave us tools to tackle challenges in the future. I'm looking forward to getting married now, without the heavy baggage I’ve been carrying all my life.

"My sessions with Emma helped me massively. I hadn't expected therapy to make such a difference. I seem to have found some sort of peace ever since. Although our daughter will always be a part of our family, I feel like now there is space in my life for other things and not just this grief."
