Getting Started

Your first step is to check in with yourself and your parts if you’re really wanting and ready to start doing internal work. It’s a commitment of time, effort and money and it needs to fit and work within the rest of your life and priorities.

You may be invited to take actions, journaling or self check-ins between sessions and should have adequate space in your life for developing the self-curiosity you unleash during our hours together whilst at home with yourself.

I’ve included this section on the website about therapy for you to explore and to understand a little more what to expect from sessions and what is expected of you for full participation. I suggest you read this section of the website in full before making any decisions.

I would also suggest you put 5 mins aside for an internal check in, below.

Check in:

Take a moment to sit down, close your eyes, take a few deep breathes and check what comes up for you when you think about starting sessions. Write down whatever you discover and allow space for different parts with conflicting thoughts and feelings. You might get to know each part better through your course of treatment and they might reveal real concerns that need addressing or investigating before you start.

Deciding on a practitioner:

If and when you are confident to proceed, consider reaching out to more than one practitioner to arrange a discovery or introductory call and check for availability, pricing and compatibility. It’s important you feel safe and excited to start work with whomever you choose. You can trust your instincts and it’s important to remember that there are many wonderful practitioners out there who will all support your healing in different ways. Try not to attach to any one practitioner before working with them. Stay open to the many people who are out there ready and wanting to support your healing.

Anticipate the possibility of rejection as good practitioners are often full or operating a waitlist. However spaces do come up and you might get lucky and fall into just the right hands at just the right time.

Resourcing yourself:

It can be helpful to tell some friends or family that you’re looking to start therapy or counselling or personal healing work so you have a support system behind you in the outside world.

Ensure you have some funding in place and an idea of how frequently you want and can afford to have sessions and if it’s for time-limited work, for how long.

Working with me:

With me, I will let you know if I have spaces, am available for an intro call, have an opening on my waitlist or are unable to accommodate anyone new. I will keep my website updated with availability on the homepage. I am always happy to hear from you, whether or not I can accommodate you and I do my best to reply, even if I can’t see you, so you know where you stand.

You can reach out to my via the webform or via my email address: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. I do not answer phone calls from unknown numbers and will respond to voice notes via email so please leave an email address if you call.

If we are fortunate enough to be able to work together, after having an intro call, I will ask you to read and sign and return my Client Consent to Treatment Form, including my payment and cancellation policy and to make the payment for your first session in advance.

Our first session may be a standard 60 minute session or we may discuss a 90 min assessment to get us started. Standard sessions are 60 mins thereafter, can be 75-90 mins by negotiation and are 90 mins as standard for couples. Quoted prices are always per hour and are pro-rated accordingly for longer sessions.

Standard sessions are by Zoom. In person sessions will be available in some instances.

"Emma has a very compassionate heart and a strong sense of empathy, both of which she uses to lovingly support clients to drop more fully into their bodies. She is open-minded, non-judgmental and can safely hold space for many states and experiences and help clients ground and integrate different aspects of themselves. She is an excellent PST practitioner and I warmly recommend her."

Mike Lousada, Founder of Psychosexual Somatics Therapy

"Emma Harper's passion for transformation - both in herself and in her clients - matches her enthusiasm for life. I admire her wild feminine courage to dive head first into the cutting edges of all her lines of development, and as she does, others are inspired to do the same. The result ... Freedom. Vitality. Synchronicity. Sensuality. Magic. Miracles. Yes!"

Lissa Rankin, MD

"Experiencing with Emma as my psychosexual somatic therapist is strong feeling of being held, seen and supported in my healing process. I feel safe and supported with Emma to trully express my emotions and feelings. She has strong empathy and I adore her body intuition to help me to connect to myself and listen to my body and dont let me to escape. I can hardly explain how good it feels when she hold safe and powerful space for me to guide me to release blocks and integrate part of myself I was rejecting. It is life shifting work we do together (for each other). Thank you Emma for your great work. I look forward to more release and more integration with you."

Barbora Koblizek, (Tantric Masseuse and Fellow PST Therapist)

"Working with Emma was a wonderfully nurturing and empowering experience. I'm really grateful for what she taught me about my body and sexuality. I was amazed by the variety of techniques that Emma used to help me understand my body and mind. I've learnt things about myself that have helped me in all areas of my life, not just the bedroom!” 

Miranda Bloodworth

I really enjoyed the Unravelling Peak Performance workshop. I met a group of nice gentlemen, we shared our stories and experiences sometimes with bravery and always with open heart, learnt about each other, and most importantly made progress in being better men and better partners. I loved how Emma facilitated the workshop, bringing us where she wanted in a gentle and loving way. I highly recommend this workshop to everyone who is on his journey to be a better man.

JJ Munsch, 2020 Unravelling Peak Performance workshop participant

"Powerful and transformative - what I learned was well beyond any expectations. Emma is a brilliant facilitator who created the space and material for us to grow rapidly whilst having fun."

Anthony Kennon

Emma held a space for me which allowed me to feel safe, seen and deeply valued. Her gentle directions and guidance allowed me to access parts of myself that I had been frightened to look at on my own. Being supported by Emma has enabled me to make positive changes in my life from an embodied place. 

Grace Brown, PST Mentee

Emma, I am grateful that you were my mentor. You attuned really well to what I needed in the mentor sessions. You are very good in paraphrasing what is really important in such a way that that it sinks deeper. You have the gift of being able to really see people in their essence, in what makes them unique. You have a great intuition, and you bring that kind of safety that invites me to bring what wants to be seen, even when that is very vulnerable. And you always give choice, which feels very empowering. 

Thank you very much. Warm hugs

Karen. PST Mentee

 "The powerful yet vulnerable way Emma guided and mirrored me in my intimate process of growth has been a very insightful and remarkable journey."  

Piero Flor, Intimacycoach

"I have come out of it a changed woman. I have dropped the old stories of something being wrong with me and that I am not sexual. I am able to stand in my power and in the sexual energy without always wanting to run away from it."

“ I still want to work more on it, to uncover more of me that has been in hiding for so long. But I will be doing the work in the knowledge that I am not broken or frigid, I am not any of the labels I have been called over the years. I am a healthy, sexual woman who chooses when and with whom she wants to share that energy with. I know now that my sexuality is not always connected to someone else, that I am a sexual being in my own right and that it doesn't have to include anyone else. That is a revelation for me!" 

Louise Merrick; Mother, Writer, Women's Sexual Expression Programme 2019 Graduate

“ I felt so seen, heard and supported with Emma as my PST mentor, I cannot recommend her enough. She has a gentle and caring presence combined with intelligence that feels very unique, she helped build my confidence and empowered me to trust my instincts. “ 

Alakina Mann, Mentee

"Emma rocks!!"

...and....

Emma has a safe, grounded and beautifully heart centred presence. She welcomed all parts of me into the space; the tender, the crazy, the angry, the sexy, the sleepy, the powerful...the full spectrum of being human. She has a lot of wisdom across different modalities and her approach integrates mind, body and spirit at a pace that my psyche was ready to open to. During our sessions, I was particularly thankful that she has an understanding of sexual energy/life-force energy and an awareness of the spiritual awakening process. 

Eshana Spiers

Emma's attention and skill over the last six months as a mentor and PST therapist has allowed me to feel safely held, seen, heard and respected through the process of our work together. Her being a mentor throughout my training was a major resource to me. I experienced her energy as boldly protective. Fiery and strong, yet compassionate; she has an amazing ability to understand a variety of experiences in a very open-minded way. She helped me to slow things right down and to get me to feel what was going on for me beneath the surface. 

Emma taught me to hold my own in identifying behaviour that was not ok and to set boundaries within my life that have proved to be so transformative for me. Her creative and playful energy also assisted me in forming a deeper relationship with my body in a way that lifted some of the heaviness I had been experiencing.

I am deeply honoured to have had Emma as a support during a monumental time in my life. Thank you Emma!

Sofia Panayiotou, PST Coach and Energy Work Practitioner

“I worked quite intensively with Emma over a period of 6 months or so. I found her to be a practitioner of great depth and empathy. Her ability to find just the right gesture, the right word, the right moment to say nothing at all, allowed me to go very deep into my inner processing of trauma from my past. During the time that I was under Emma’s care, I released some of the biggest trauma wounding patterns of my life. I can honestly say, that I am a different person since I completed this work with Emma. I feel that I have my life back. You are very lucky to find this wonderful practitioner. She has a very great capacity to hold you in your process, if you are willing to do your own work”

Karin Probert

Emma has an unparalleled ability to hear the meaning behind what I say and guide me to understand it. She has helped transform my sense of myself and my relationship. Her work is life-changing. She is a gift.
