About me
Hi, I’m Jay, a counsellor working from St Austell in Cornwall & online with people all over the UK. I can help with a lot of different things, including anxiety, depression and loss. I'm qualified in a range of therapeutic approaches which means our time together will be about what you need from counselling.
I believe in making counselling simple and to make that simplicity useful for you. While I'm too young to have been a proper hippie that's how a lot of people describe me. I'm very comfortable working with the stuff you might think is odd, unusual or "out there", so a lot of my work with is with people who see themselves that way.
My approach to counselling is really useful in helping people make sense of themselves and their relationships. If there's something in your life that doesn't quite make sense, or you can't get it to sit right, that's the kind of things I can help with. Might be in yourself, with other people or maybe working out your place in the world.
Life is always going to be hard sometimes and yet it so rarely gives you the time and space to recover and to make it make sense. If you want to work with someone who is going to want to be along side you in getting answers, to give real space for how you feel & who will be able to help without telling you what to think, come talk to me.
I work with Adults generally in a one-to-one setting. If you need counselling for a young person under 18 I can put you in contact with colleagues who offer that kind of support.
While my practice is busy and I often have a waiting list, you're always welcome to get in touch to have a talk. It's great for you to have the chance to find out what you think when you talk to me, to decide if you'd like to work together and if we can find a good time to do that.
Training, qualifications & experience
I qualified as a counsellor in 2016 with a CPCAB Diploma from the well regarded Devon and Cornwall Counselling Hub.
I continued studying there for a level 5 Qualification in Psychotherapeutic Counselling & a level 6 Qualification in Clinical Supervision, to enable me to support a wider range of clients and issues. As a clinical supervisor I am qualfied to support counsellors & therapists of all kinds.
I am a registered CPCAB tutor, teaching counselling skills & theory for students preparing to become counsellors, and a diploma course for those who have chosen to become counsellors, as well as post-qualifying courses in relationships and supervison.
I've done volunteer work with Freshfields in Truro (part of St Petroc's), working with addicts after they have been through rehab to help them rebuild their lives and prevent relapses.
I have training around the impacts sexual & gender diversity. As a part of the queer community, I am passionate about working with anyone who might feel uncertain or vulnerable when considering counselling.

Additional information
I ask for £50 for a normal 60-minute counselling session.
If you would like to meet for longer sessions we can discuss an appropriate rate.
I also offer discounted rates from £40 per session. My hope is that by offering a reduced rate I can make counselling available to more people. We can talk about what is affordable for you before or during our first meeting.
I do not ask for any documents or evidence to qualify for a lower rate. I trust people to deal with me honestly and like to keep things simple.
I am able to visit you at home for our sessions if required. This must be agreed in advance and is depends on you having a suitable home environment for counselling work. There is sometimes an additional fee to cover travel time and expenses.
