Emily Perkins
Languages Spoken:
- English
With 16 years of experience in education and a decade dedicated to
mental health, wellbeing and careers, Emily is passionate about helping
individuals, families, and communities thrive. Specialising in working with
adolescents, young adults, and families, she is deeply committed to supporting
clients in building resilience, improving mental wellness, finding glimmers and
creating meaningful, fulfilling lives.
Emily’s core belief is that you are the expert in your wellness
journey. Her approach focuses on helping you hone into your inner wisdom and
cultivate a healthier relationship with yourself to promote healing and growth.
Emily is dedicated to empowering you to discover your own strengths and
navigate life’s challenges with confidence.
What sets Emily apart is her warm, engaging style. She combines
humour and kindness to deliver impactful messages that resonate, creating a
space where clients feel safe and supported. She’s not your average
therapist—Emily brings a refreshing approach to therapy, making it both
relatable and transformative.
Emily wants to support clients to access glimmers—those
tiny, fleeting moments of joy that spark feelings of happiness, gratitude,
calm, peace, safety, or goodwill. She believes these micro moments are powerful
tools for cultivating mental wellness, and her work encourages clients to
recognise and embrace these moments to foster a deeper sense of wellbeing.
Through her guidance, Emily helps individuals not just survive, but thrive, by
focusing on the beauty of the present and the strength within.
