Jill Cassidy

I work online and can arrange appointments during the day or early evening (Thursday & Friday) and Saturday mornings. I can be flexible with timings, particularly around changing work shifts. 

I am a qualified counsellor. I provide a confidential, non-judgemental, encouraging space to talk and work together.

I work with clients with a wide range of reasons to seek counselling – often those who have experienced something difficult or who have become stuck.

Reasons for seeking counselling include anxiety, OCD, stress, addiction, suicidal ideation, relationship issues, transgender issues, sexual issues and sexual assault, trauma, low confidence and self esteem and childhood trauma.

I have a Diploma in Adlerian Counselling. Adlerian psychology places the individual at the core of change, encouraging and supporting understanding of childhood logic and patterns of behaviour to enable progress and change in the present. Together we work on identifying the areas in which you are stuck or struggling to focus the work on understanding what you need and how to get there. 

I have a background in consultancy and support services and have volunteered in crisis support. I have a wide range of experience of working with people in different industries with different problems.

To get started .. please contact me for a free initial chat, either by email or text, I'll be happy to answer any questions and discuss what you need from counselling.

I work online or by phone. I've been working online since Covid and continue to find it an effective and flexible way to engage with clients and help them work through their issues.

Our First session will be getting to know what you want from counselling and identifying the presenting issues that you want to work on. You can ask any questions and together we can map out a way forward. I may afterwards ask you to complete some questionnaires to gather background information and establish how you are affected by Anxiety, Depression and health issues. If appropriate I will also for assess symptoms of PTSD or CPTSD.
