Service

Emma Hacking offers online counselling sessions (typically via Zoom) that are tailored to each individual’s needs, focusing on areas such as anxiety, depression, identity issues, gender and sexuality, relational dynamics, stress, isolation, burnout, ecological or political anxiety, and making meaning of psychedelic experiences. Integration work includes preparation sessions to clarify intentions for upcoming experiences and integration sessions to help understand and incorporate insights following a psychedelic experience. Appointments are usually 50 minutes weekly, with flexibility in pacing and duration. A free introductory consultation is offered before beginning regular work.

Safety

Emma Hacking holds accredited training in therapeutic counselling and psychospiritual counselling, is a professional member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, and holds additional certifications in gender, sex and relationship diversity counselling. Therapy is provided within a confidential, supportive and collaborative environment that emphasises client agency, anti‑oppressive practice and emotional safety. Preparatory work and ongoing support are designed to reduce potential distress and help clients navigate both emotional challenges and integration of intense experiences.

Care pathway

Clients begin by contacting Emma Hacking to arrange a free introductory consultation call to discuss presenting concerns, background and therapeutic goals. Following the consultation, regular online counselling sessions are scheduled according to client needs. For psychedelic preparation and integration work, initial sessions focus on intentions and readiness, with follow‑up integration sessions used to explore insights, meanings and emotional responses after a psychedelic experience. The therapeutic plan is tailored collaboratively and may continue at the client’s preferred pace.
