About me
Do you find yourself overthinking, feeling anxious in relationships, or stuck in patterns you can’t quite explain?
Maybe you seem “fine” on the outside — but inside, something feels off.
You might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or frustrated that the same issues keep showing up, no matter how much you try to change.
I’m Armi Jones, a BACP and British Psychoanalytic Council registered psychodynamic counsellor. I work with adults who want to understand themselves more deeply — not just cope, but actually make sense of why things feel the way they do.
Together, we’ll explore what sits beneath the surface — the thoughts, feelings, and past experiences that shape how you relate to yourself and others today. This can help you break free from patterns around anxiety, low self-worth, relationships, and emotional overwhelm.
Clients often come to me when:
They feel stuck in the same relationship dynamics
Anxiety or self-doubt is taking over
They feel lost, disconnected, or unsure of who they are
Life changes have shaken their sense of stability or identity
I have a particular interest in working with expats and those navigating major life transitions — where questions of identity, belonging, and direction can feel especially intense.
My approach is warm, thoughtful, and collaborative. I’ll meet you where you are — while gently helping you go deeper, at a pace that feels manageable for you.
If you’re ready to understand yourself in a more meaningful way, we can start there.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a registered member of the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), and I adhere to their ethical frameworks and standards.
I have experience working in both agency settings, including Help Counselling in Trowbridge, and in private practice. I am also a member of Wessex Counselling and Psychotherapy and regularly engage in continued professional development.
My work focuses on:
Anxiety and overthinking
Low self-esteem and self-worth
Relationship and attachment patterns
Loss, change, and identity
Feelings of disconnection or “something not quite right”
I offer a free 20 minute introductory call.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) is a professional association, representing the profession of psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
The organisation is itself made up of fourteen member organisations and BPC accredits the trainings of its member organisations. An individual who qualifies from one of these trainings is then eligible for entry into the BPC's register.
BPC registrants are governed by a code of ethics, a policy of continuing professional development, a statement on confidentiality and a complaints procedure. The BPC is a Member Society of the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in the Public Sector (EFPP). Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
