Emma Pritchard

I am an integrative accredited counsellor and certified forest therapist, and since 2018 I have worked solely in outdoor spaces, mainly in woodlands to support my clients on both an intuitive and spiritual level. I grew up in the Staffordshire countryside climbing trees and after a period of purely city life during my 20s and 30s, I moved to Dorset in 2009 during a difficult transition. I reconnected with nature as a healing, comforting space and time for me. My innate connection with nature encouraged me to transfer my counselling practice into the outdoors and since 2018 I have supported and continue to support many adults, families, couples and young people affected by bereavement, loss, trauma, abuse, gender transitions, sexual identity, anxiety, suicidal ideation and self-harm behaviours, anger and neurodiveristy within my private practice, as well as supporting schools , charities. and multi agency work with camhs, gps, and social care teams.
