Jaye Donnellan

I have limited availability for new supervisees working either online or face-to-face depending on your preference.

I usually work Tuesday-Thursday between 09:00 and 14:00, however, I am flexible around these hours and can accomodate requests for sessions outside of my core hours if required, please contact me to discuss your individual needs.

Hi, I'm Jaye, a qualified humanistic and integrative counselling and psychotherapy supervisor with significant experience in the helping professions, I have dedicated my career to fostering the personal and professional growth of clients and now counsellors through humanistic supervision. My extensive background includes working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and presenting various concerns.

My supervision approach is rooted in the principles of humanistic counselling. I believe in creating a collaborative and empathetic space where counsellors can explore their experiences, enhance self-awareness, and develop their unique therapeutic style. I draw from person-centered, existential, and gestalt therapy modalities to tailor supervision to the individual needs and goals of each supervisee whilst integrating unconscious process and developemental theory to gain deeper insight into yours and your clients process using the therapeutic relationship as our guide.

I am passionate about empowering counsellors to tap into their innate potential and authenticity. Supervision, in my view, is a co-creative process where both supervisor and supervisee engage in a reflective and transformative journey. I am committed to creating a non-judgmental and supportive environment that encourages self-discovery, self-acceptance, and continuous professional development.

I believe that ongoing learning is fundamental to our profession. Through a collaborative approach, I encourage open dialogue, reflective practice, and the exploration of diverse perspectives. This promotes a dynamic and enriching supervisory relationship that contributes to the evolution of both the supervisee and the supervisor.

I offer face-to-face sessions from my private room near Arundel. I endeavour to offer a safe, calm, and confidential space for you to explore your experiences, thoughts and feelings.There is off-street parking and toilet facilities are available. I can accomodate groups of up to three if needed.

I also work remotely, offering sessions via video or telephone depending on your preference. Online therapy can sometimes offer more flexibility if life feels busy for you right now.

I offer a 30-minute initial consultation to discuss your needs before we commit to working together. This can take place over the phone or via zoom depending on your preference.

I work Tuesday - Thursday and have sessions available, please contact me to discuss your requirements.

Hi, I'm Jaye, a Humanistic & Integrative (more on that later) Therapist based near Arundel, West Sussex. 

I remember searching for the right therapist by scrolling through these pages, I imagine it's the last thing you want to be doing on top of the difficulties you're currently facing. Trying to find someone to support you, whether its your first time or you've done this before, can be hard. I wanted a therapist who would understand and respect me, and not judge me or my experience. I aim to offer the same to all individuals I work with.

It can feel like a leap reaching out for support when you're finding it difficult to make sense of who you are, or the world around you. If you're struggling to move forward from adverse childhood events, trauma, grief, losses or disappointments, I can walk beside you, helping you to feel less alone or fearful. I believe that you're the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming challenges, I feel respectful of you having the courage to take this step towards change and growth.

Being a humanistic therapist means I work from a "what happened to you" rather than a "what is wrong with you" place; I believe that we each have the power to change patterns and behaviours that no longer serve us. I integrate a number compassionate and client-focused approaches, working with all that you bring to support you to develop self-awareness, empowering you to discover new ways to view yourself and others around you. I will adapt how I work to respect your individuality; I don't believe a one-size-fits-all approach is effective, ensuring you feel heard and not judged.

The relationship we build can help you test new ways of being which can bring change. I feel it is equally important that I bring myself into our sessions and that balancing my approach, evidence-based practice and me, as a human being, is key to helping you to understand yourself and facilitate the changes you seek.

I offer a free 20 minute consultation so we can talk through what support you are seeking and whether I am the right person to walk with you on this part of your journey. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have about how I work and what to expect from our sessions.

If we both agree that we can establish a therapeutic relationship, during our first session we will establish the frequency of your sessions, potential length of treatment, and payment information in the form of a contract which we will review throughout our work together.
