I support people to live happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives, by reducing emotional distress and challenging unhelpful or rigid thought patterns. I have practiced privately for a number of years, and have also worked at the Priory Hospital, an addiction support agency and within numerous colleges. I work with individuals and with couples. Perhaps you are fed up with feeling, living or thinking in a certain way, and this is affecting your work life, your romantic relationships, your friendships or your self-esteem.

I'm Jess, a qualified NCS/CPCAB counsellor. I have over 10 years experience of working with families, adults and children in a range of settings. I have always loved my work and feel that the most important thing is truly listening to someone and how they are feeling. To be able to give someone the space to be able to talk without judgement, and be accepted is so powerful! I understand that people come to counselling for loads of different reasons. I hope that I can offer a space for you to explore what you need in a non judgemental and accepting environment.

As a counsellor I will listen to you explore what brings you to counselling such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, grief, low self esteem, isolation and any difficult feelings, thoughts and emotions you may encounter. Are you having difficulty making sense of your personal and relational issues and what’s troubling you? Do you need the time and space to be able to talk and explore aspects of yourself, being listened to by a compassionate, reflective counsellor? I am an integrative counsellor basing the therapeutic relationship on warmth, care, respect, and trust. I offer a safe, confidential and non- judgmental environment.

Therapy can be an opportunity for you to develop self-awareness, and a deeper understanding of the ways in which you relate to both yourself and others. It can be a place to explore and make sense of the things that are getting in the way of you living the life that you wish to live. This will involve us working together to explore the issues you bring.

There are many reasons for seeking support, whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, loss, low self-esteem, fears, feeling overwhelmed or questioning the direction of your life – therapy offers a non-judgemental, safe space to work through the challenges of life. Therapy is not about advice or assumptions. It is about having a confidential space to explore why your life feels like it does and offers hope for change.

It can be difficult to choose a therapist and to understand the various titles therapists go by, as well as the different types of therapies and counselling on offer. However, I personally think one of the most important factors in choosing a therapist is the fit between the client and therapist and whether the relationship feels warm and empathic. My therapeutic style is to identify and build on existing strengths and to offer a safe supportive space to explore current difficulties. Having had my own psychotherapy, I am familiar with what it feels like to be on the receiving end of therapy and I am sensitive to this during my work.

Some feelings and problems are hard to understand or to bear. Sometimes they are overwhelming in their intensity or sometimes we just feel stuck, as if things will never change. They may arise from a sudden personal crisis or from a relationship or from ongoing anxiety or depression. They can belong to the present but can also be rooted in painful experiences from the past. Psychotherapy offers a way to think about what is happening in the present, reflect on patterns and links from the past and explore how change can happen.

Life can throw us off course, from time to time we can all feel overwhelmed, confused, stuck, frightened or alone. Counselling gives the opportunity to talk through feelings, thoughts and worries in a safe, non-judgmental space. It is not always easy to talk to our family and friends, the therapeutic relationship offers a confidential and consistent space to share and work through the problems we can find difficult to bring up with others.
