About me and my therapy practice

Hello, I'm Jess, a compassionate person-centred counsellor affiliated with Rare Space Counselling. I am a fully trained and accredited UK counsellor with over three years of experience working across charities and the private sector. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, and depression. I have specialist trauma focused training with extensive experience in working with survivors of rape and sexual assault. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion and that everyone's unique experiences shape their views on the world. It is for that reason that I treat everyone as an individual, not as a diagnosis. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.


Qualifications:

  • Therapeutic Counselling CPCAB Level 4 Diploma
  • Master of Science (MSc) in Psychology (distinction)

  • Specialist training in working with survivors of trauma and sexual assault


Practice description

As a person-centred counsellor, I follow the core principles of the person-centred approach developed by Carl Rogers. This approach places you, the client, at the centre of the therapeutic process. I understand that you are the expert of your own experience and works collaboratively with you to explore your feelings, thoughts, and concerns without judgment. Through active listening and unconditional positive regard, I aim to create a space where you can freely express yourself, gain insight, and find your own solutions.

My first session

I will usually suggest a free 15-minute call prior to beginning our  sessions together. This will give you the opportunity to get to know a bit more about me and my practise, so you can feel confident in the lead up to our first face-to-face session.  This will also give me the opportunity to understand what you are looking for from your counselling and to ensure I have the relevant knowledge and expertise to support you on your journey.
