About me
Are you considering therapy but unable to commit to ongoing weekly sessions? Factors such as the rising cost of living, work obligations & busy lifestyles are making it harder for many people to access traditional counselling at a “set” day and time.
My name is Jolene, and I am a person-centred therapist working remotely in the UK. I offer a fully flexible, ad-hoc approach to counselling where clients have complete control over the frequency of their sessions, with no expectation to rebook the same slot every week.
Life can be unpredictable, and I allow for this in my practice by offering an “as and when” service for clients who otherwise can’t commit to counselling. Therapy can be costly, and some weeks it’s difficult to justify the expense of a session (especially if things have been going well) other weeks you might feel you need two! Ultimately, I leave the decision up to you, safe in the knowledge that I’m here if you need me.
After an initial chat (via email) to ensure we are compatible and answer any questions you may have, we can discuss availability and confirm the first session date & time. For all future sessions simply drop me an email/text for the next free appointment, or to book in for the week ahead.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am qualified to work with adults and young people over 16, and offer a compassionate space for those who have been affected by a wide range of incidents, losses and trauma; I also provide support to clients who just need to talk or vent about their lives in an unbiased and impartial setting. We are living in uncertain times, and it can be difficult to maintain optimism with the current economic crisis, life seems to be so difficult for most people. For me, creating a safe environment for clients to explore their issues without fear of being judged, is the highest privilege and honor.
Together we can investigate any feelings or difficulties you are going through and work towards making sense of these experiences to gain more self-awareness and clarity. I will work at your pace to help you discover ways of coping that can help you resolve your difficulties and move toward healing and positive growth.
Areas I can help with include:
· Feelings of anxiety and stress
· Feeling overwhelmed by life's circumstances
· low mood, depression or a lack of meaning in your life
· loss and grief
· Isolation and loneliness
· Difficulties in relationships
· low self worth, lack of confidence
· A personal crisis
It can take courage to engage in counselling but whatever brings you to therapy, I will treat with sensitivity, understanding, care and support to help you find ways to work through the challenges that you may be facing.
