Emma Jeffery
Lead Counsellor
Qualified in 2019, I am a person-centred and integrative counsellor with a strong background in healthcare, having previously worked as a nurse. I now support clients at Hope Meadows through our model of Equine Assisted Therapy. I am also a certified IEMT practitioner and a Level 6 Clinical Supervisor. Currently, I’m expanding my practice through training in somatic therapy.
Alongside my professional work, I share my life with my own horses and deeply value the connection, presence, and healing they offer.
Working with Me
I work with both adults and young people, offering person-centred, holistic support that unfolds at the client’s pace. My sessions are gentle and grounded in presence, creating space for clients to explore their experiences in a way that feels safe and authentic.
I take a “being with” approach - spending time alongside the herd, allowing the horses’ natural responses and relationships to guide reflection and connection. Through this shared experience, we gently explore emotions, behaviours, and patterns, aiming to ease their impact and nurture wellbeing.
​
As a clinical supervisor, I also support and supervise our student counsellors, helping them to develop their practice within our unique model of equine-assisted therapy.
