Emina Marovac Hulusic

Counselling and Therapy

A place to be

About

My name is Emina (pronounced e-mee-nah), and I am a qualified person-centred therapeutic counsellor. I work in a relational way, providing a non-judgemental inclusive space, where you can explore what is important for you at your own pace. I believe in the uniqueness of every individual and aim to support you with genuine curiosity, kindness, and empathy. I welcome clients of all backgrounds, ethnicities, and identities, and I am committed to providing support that is culturally informed and respectful of each person’s unique experiences and intersections. Our human experiences, nervous systems, and minds are incredibly diverse, and I believe that you are the expert on your own life.

How I work

In our sessions, my priority is to create an environment where you feel seen, heard, and valued. This will empower you to make choices that align with your true self and feel worthy of the joy and fulfilment that life offers. Through perceived acceptance when working with me, I believe you can come to see yourself as deserving of happiness, self-care, and healthy, life-affirming decisions.

One of my core interests lies in exploring feelings of otherness and how that impacts a person's life, relationships, and values. I am also interested in supporting individuals who have experienced emotional neglect, helping them to recognise and address the impact it has on their lives. My approach focuses on normalising emotions, encouraging understanding, and fostering acceptance of all feelings. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space, I aim to help clients reconnect with their emotional selves, understand their responses, and work towards healthier emotional expression and self-compassion. This is especially important during times of significant life changes and losses. When we experience major transitions—such as matresence, bereavement, divorce, health challenges — emotions can feel overwhelming or even disconnected due to past neglect. By normalising and understanding these emotional responses, we can better process feelings like grief, sadness, or uncertainty.

English is my second language and I bring authenticity and honesty to our sessions, always maintaining professional boundaries while encouraging you to be your true self. I also offer sessions in Serbian/Bosnian/Croatian (for clients outside of the UK please contact me for prices and information).

 

I have supported clients through a variety of challenges, including:

  • Work stress, anxiety, including performance anxiety
  • Self-care, self-worth, body image concerns
  • Anger, shame, guilt, ADHD
  • Relationship issues with family, friends, or partners
  • Life transitions such as bereavement, loss, divorce, parenting, immigration, job changes, starting university, and health diagnoses
  • Religious transitions and questions of belonging or identity
I have a living experience and can support individuals diagnosed with cancer and brain tumours (particularly glioblastoma) and their families.

Cancellations & Lateness

I aim to work with transparency and accountability.

I require a 48 hours notice for cancelling a session. I understand that life happens and, through honest conversations, when unexpected things happen, I can sometimes offer understanding for an odd, less than 48-hour, notice.

If in the unfortunate event, I have to cancel your session on my behalf, all efforts will be made to inform you with as much notice as possible.

In either event, we can negotiate and rearrange your session at another mutually suitable time/day, where possible, or agree to continue on our next usual scheduled session.

This policy is in place to honour the time allocated for you and maintain fairness for all clients.

 

Payment information

To secure your appointment, full payment is required no later than 24 hours of your booked session. Timely payment ensures I can maintain an efficient and effective schedule for all clients. Payment information will be provided during or after the introductory session.

 

Privacy policy

Any personal information you share with EMH Counselling, whether verbally, in writing, electronically, or through my website, will be securely stored and processed per the data protection principles outlined in the Data Protection Act 1998 and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This will only be done for the purposes you have consented to and to deliver the requested services.

As a registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), I adhere to their strict ethical and professional standards. This ensures that I provide the highest level of confidentiality, safeguarding your privacy, maintaining trust, and respecting your autonomy as a client.

I take every possible measure to protect your personal information. I am registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) to meet legal requirements.

Confidentiality

As a therapist, I am legally and ethically obligated to always safeguard my clients’ confidentiality. What is shared in sessions remains private, and I treat everything you share with the utmost respect.

However, there are rare exceptions when confidentiality may be broken, such as in cases of safeguarding, an immediate/serious risk to your safety or others. This includes safeguarding issues regarding children or vulnerable adults, crimes regarding substantial financial gains and losses, and acts of terrorism.

If this occurs, I will discuss it with you during our session, if possible. Breaking confidentiality is uncommon but required by UK law and the NCPS to ensure a safe and ethical practice.

I do not communicate via text messaging for my practice, nor do I store client phone numbers on my phone. I will do my best to check my emails regularly, except when I am on holiday. When checking your inbox for my email, please check your spam too.

Regular supervision is a key part of my counselling practice. The supervisor is a more experienced counsellor, usually with additional training in supervision and we work together to ensure I am always acting in the best interests of my clients, practising ethically and safely. While I may discuss the content of therapeutic sessions with them, client identities remain confidential.
