About Jodie
Jodie Bament is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has worked for seven years helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Jodie focuses on practical talk, respectful listening and helping people find small, manageable steps forward.
She adapts sessions to fit each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Conversations centre on the client’s immediate concerns and goals.
Background and approach
Jodie encourages realistic ways to cope and rebuild confidence over time. Her work often involves understanding how life changes and relationship strains affect mood and day-to-day functioning. She supports people dealing with loss, separation, blended family issues and problems with communication or control.
Money worries, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame are also common themes she addresses. Mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed. Client-centred methods mean the client sets the agenda while the counsellor follows and reflects back what they say.
Sessions aim to help people recognise unhelpful patterns and try different approaches in everyday life. Jodie offers straightforward support for social anxiety, phobias and isolation by practising coping skills and building small steps towards social confidence. Her approach is warm, patient and focused on what the client wants to change.
How client-centred and mindfulness approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experiences. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and helps the person find their own solutions. This approach is helpful when someone needs empathetic listening and space to make sense of difficult feelings.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice thoughts, bodily sensations and emotions without getting swept away. These practices can reduce the intensity of anxiety and help with stress, grief and low mood by bringing attention back to the present moment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss what seems helpful and try methods that match the person's needs and preferences. Decisions about technique and pace are made collaboratively, and adjustments are normal as the work progresses.
Online therapy offers several practical options: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when video is difficult, and live chat or text messaging for shorter check-ins or ongoing support. These formats let people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments and can make it easier to keep regular appointments.
