Emmanuel Oragui, BACP

Emmanuel Oragui is a counsellor who brings warmth and authenticity to sessions. He aims to create a positive, calm atmosphere where people can talk through difficult feelings. Emmanuel holds a BACP credential and draws on five years of practice in the United Kingdom.

He often helps people facing stress, anxiety and relationship concerns, including intimacy-related issues and grief. He also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, parenting pressures and coping with life changes. Additional focus areas listed include body image, codependency, attachment issues and the impacts of chronic illness.

Emmanuel uses a mix of therapeutic styles to meet different needs. He works from client-centred and attachment-based ideas, and he also draws on cognitive behavioural approaches alongside psychodynamic and Jungian perspectives. This variety lets him adapt to what each person brings to sessions.

Much of his experience has come from working with a wide range of age groups in educational settings such as nurseries, primary and secondary schools, and sixth forms. He describes this work as a valuable part of his professional development and says it informs how he supports people in other settings.

Emmanuel trained with an Advance Diploma in Psychotherapy Counselling Skills and a Professional Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling Practice. He continues to pursue further learning and aims to bring that ongoing growth into his work with clients.

How Emmanuel’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current needs. In online sessions this can help people notice relational reactions and try new ways of relating in day-to-day life.

Client-centred therapy prioritises the person’s experience and pace. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what is said and helps the client find their own solutions to problems like anxiety, self-esteem and relationship struggles.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical strategies to test unhelpful beliefs. It is often used for stress, anxiety and coping with life changes because it gives clear tools to use between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided collaboratively. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and day-to-day challenges, then adapt methods over time as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online counselling helps fit therapy into busy routines, makes it easier to attend regularly, and supports shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor sessions to practical needs while working through relationship, intimacy and other concerns.
