About Jessica

Jessica Douglas is a BACP counsellor who offers straightforward, person-centred psychotherapy. She creates a calm space where people can tell their story and work through stress, anxiety, grief and other difficult experiences. Jessica aims to listen with curiosity and to reflect what clients bring without judgement.

She uses Transactional Analysis as her main model and adapts other techniques to fit individual needs. That means sessions can include practical tools, reflective conversation and joint planning about goals.

Background and approach

Jessica describes herself first as a human and then as a therapist, so she keeps sessions down-to-earth and conversational. Jessica is comfortable offering single sessions for focused problems, short-term work of six to eight weeks, or longer-term psychotherapy if helpful. Session length and number are discussed during an initial meeting and agreed in a treatment plan.

She also explains that sometimes a different match is better, and changing therapist is always an option. Her working hours are typically 10am to 7pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, with evening and weekend appointments by request.

She follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework and will inform clients if she is unwell and needs to reschedule so they can decide how to proceed. Sessions cover a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, parenting strain, addictions, workplace issues and relationship difficulties.

Jessica works online with clients in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Jessica lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Jessica primarily uses Transactional Analysis as a core approach. This method looks at patterns in how people relate and communicate, and helps identify unhelpful roles or scripts that cause stress. It can be useful for problems like relationship struggles, self-esteem concerns and recurring emotional patterns.

She also draws on other evidence-based techniques tailored to the person. These may include practical coping strategies for anxiety and mood management, or focused short-term work such as single session approaches and brief psychotherapy. These tools help with concrete goals like reducing panic, improving sleep, or handling workplace stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and how you respond to different methods, and then agree a plan with you. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or want flexible timing. These options make therapy easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
