About me
My name is Jessica. I am a dedicated, experienced and Accredited Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist MNCPS (Acc.).
The thought of starting therapy can feel daunting, perhaps this is why it may seem easier to keep struggling and waiting in the hope that things will change. Something within you led you to take this first step to find a therapist and I welcome the opportunity to assist as you identify your individual needs, taking one step at a time to make the changes you want at a pace that suits you.
I offer a safe and nurturing space where you can confidentially explore your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement. Self-awareness can lead to new freedom and greater self-acceptance, but as with anything, the journey can be both enlightening and challenging at times. I believe that building a therapeutic relationship is key in supporting growth and change enabling us to connect and work at relational depth.
Whilst human beings hold similarities in that we all have needs that require to be fulfilled, I also acknowledge that all of us are unique and therefore each of our needs are individual as are our life experiences, relationships, coping mechanisms and responses. My Integrative training allows me to draw knowledge from various modalities, enabling me to adapt my approach to you.
As an Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor my goal is to provide a space dedicated to you where collaboratively we will begin a journey of healing, promoting your wellbeing and future goals with shared understanding, equipping you with techniques you can continue to use long after our sessions finish. Together we will explore your difficulties and celebrate your growth.
I warmly invite you to get in touch with any questions you may have.
