About Jeremy
Jeremy Adshead is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, depression, trauma and abuse, grief and intimacy concerns. He offers practical support for sleep and eating problems, parenting strains, anger, low self-esteem, career shifts and ADHD. Jeremy holds BACP registration and brings ten years of professional experience in the UK.
He speaks plainly and treats people with respect and compassion. Sessions focus on the issues you bring and on small, useful steps you can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Jeremy adapts the pace and tone to what each person needs rather than following a fixed script. Jeremy works with a wide range of life challenges including chronic illness, caregiver stress, body-image issues and separation. He also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family dynamics and the practical effects of grief and bereavement.
The aim is to make complex problems easier to understand and manage. In sessions he will talk through coping strategies and practical tools for everyday life. That might include planning how to handle difficult conversations, breaking down goals into manageable actions, or learning ways to reduce intense anxiety when it arises.
Jeremy tailors a plan to each person’s circumstances and goals. He recognises that starting therapy takes courage and offers steady, supportive guidance as people work towards clearer thinking and more dependable routines.

Evidence-based approaches for online support
Jeremy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common technique helps people learn to notice and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more balanced thoughts; this approach suits worries, anxiety and low mood. Another approach concentrates on developing coping skills and step-by-step plans to reduce problematic behaviours such as addictions or self-sabotage, and to improve sleep or daily routines.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jeremy will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time, keeping the process collaborative and responsive.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make access easier. Video is helpful for longer, face-to-face style conversations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging suit quick touchpoints, written reflection or times when talks by text feel easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping focus on practical progress.
