About me
Hi, I’m Jim Slattery. I offer integrative counselling and psychotherapy, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches—including Gestalt, Person-Centred, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and psychodynamic methods. This flexible approach allows me to tailor sessions to each client’s unique needs and the specific challenges they are facing.
My work is grounded in a deep interest in how our thoughts, emotions, and bodily experiences are interconnected. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, stress, navigating life changes, relationship difficulties, or seeking greater self-understanding, I aim to provide a warm, non-judgmental space where you can feel heard, supported, and empowered to explore what matters to you.
I offer both short- and long-term face-to-face sessions in two locations: Deddington (North Oxfordshire) and Eynsham (West Oxfordshire). For those who prefer the flexibility or privacy of remote support, I also provide secure online therapy sessions.
Wherever you are on your journey, I’m here to walk alongside you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a registered Counsellor with the BACP with 2 years of experience working with individuals from a variety of backgrounds and who have chosen to engage with counselling or therapy for a wide range of reasons. I draw from a rich foundation of integrative training from the University of Warwick and Newman University, Birmingham. My model of therapy is grounded in humanistic, psychodynamic, and Gestalt principles, allowing me to tailor therapy to meet your individual needs. Whether you're navigating anxiety, healing from past experiences, or seeking greater self-awareness and well-being. I have experience working with individuals facing a wide range of challenges in their lives, including depression, ASD diagnosis, identity, relationship breakdown, trauma, and personal development.
With over 10 years of experience in psychoeducation, I also bring practical skills into the therapeutic space, including self-regulation tools and support to develop deeper awareness and understanding of our inner emotional landscape. As a certified Cognitively Based Compassion Training (CBCT) facilitator and long-time meditation teacher, I integrate mindfulness and compassion-based practices into therapeutic work where appropriate.
My role is to provide a safe, collaborative space where you can explore, grow, and reconnect with yourself. I look forward to walking alongside you on this meaningful path.
Member organisations
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.
