About Meadowbrook Counselling
Our Philosophy
At Meadowbrook Counselling, in Eastham, on the Wirral, we believe in a holistic approach to mental health and neurodiversity. We are committed to neuro-affirming practice, tailoring sessions to meet individual needs. Our integrative counselling methods provide a safe space for personal growth and exploration for adults over 18.
We’re here to offer a space where you can talk freely, feel heard and accepted without judgment, and gain perspective from someone outside the situation.

Meet Emma (she/her)
As a neurodivergent counsellor, with both training in and lived experience of ADHD and autism, I am sensitive to the specific needs of individuals with neurodiversity coming into the counselling room. During our first session we will establish what small changes can be made to ensure the counselling space feels safe and comfortable for you, for example, whether you can see the clock, whether you prefer brighter or dimmer lighting etc. You are also welcome to bring fidget toys or other comfort aides into the counselling space. I do ask that your phone is switched to silent and put away whilst the session is in progress to minimise distractions during the session.
Using an integrative method of counselling I use a blend of person-centred counselling, psychodynamic counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). What that means is that firstly I am here to listen to you and for you to be heard, without judgement and with empathy and understanding. We may talk about what has happened for you in the past or look at tools to make daily life a little easier, but each session is lead by you. Counselling is different to coaching, I'm not here to give advice, but to help you to explore who you are, what is happening for you, and what that means for you.
