About Jyotsana
Jyotsana Gilmore is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 11 years of professional experience. She offers a steady, plainspoken approach for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. Jyotsana aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and understandable.
She draws on several practical approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred therapy to help people notice patterns and try new responses.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on small, concrete changes that make daily life easier. Conversations are down-to-earth and aimed at what matters most to the individual. Her background includes work in both India and the UK, which has shaped a flexible way of working across different cultures and life situations.
She uses this experience to offer empathy and clear tools rather than jargon. Many people she sees bring concerns about self-esteem, motivation, addictions, grief or coping with big life changes. The therapist also supports people facing issues such as trauma and abuse, family stress, intimacy problems, sleeping and eating difficulties, and anger.
She is familiar with complex presentations including bipolar concerns, attachment challenges and codependency. Jyotsana works in English and accepts international clients. Her approach is collaborative: she listens, discusses options and helps people decide what to try between sessions.
Therapeutic approaches suited to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based action. It is useful for anxiety, stress and situations where someone feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to change them. CBT is often used for anxiety, sleep problems and low mood. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the person’s own experience and aims to create a non-judgemental space for exploration.Choosing which approach to try is a shared decision. The therapist will discuss options, try techniques together and adjust the plan based on what feels most useful. This means sessions can combine elements from different approaches to meet the person’s goals and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions suit people who prefer not to use video or who have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for short check-ins, written reflections or times when typing is easier than speaking. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel or family commitments while keeping focus on clear, practical tools and conversation.
