Background and approach

She keeps language plain and avoids jargon so people can apply ideas between sessions. Her approach draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot patterns that keep problems going. Psychodynamic ideas are used when past experiences seem linked to present difficulties.

She also uses solution-focused strategies to set small, achievable goals and build momentum. Jean holds BACP accreditation, which shows formal registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has three years of professional experience working with a range of concerns, including trauma, intimacy issues and bereavement.

Her background includes supporting people affected by domestic violence, eating difficulties and post-traumatic stress. In sessions Jean emphasises partnership. She helps people weigh options, try out new coping skills and review what works.

If you want a calm, practical space to think things through, she offers a steady, empathetic presence to support that process.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship. The counsellor reflects what the person says, helps them find their own answers and creates space to talk about feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It helps people spot unhelpful patterns and try practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood and handle stress in everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and agree a plan together based on what you want to achieve and how you prefer to work. This collaborative process means methods can be adapted as progress is reviewed.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make contact easier around busy schedules. Video suits longer, face-to-face style conversations. Phone can fit shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging can be useful for brief reflections or keeping momentum between talks. These options help people access therapy from different locations and at times that fit their life.
