About Jyotsana

Jyotsana Gilmore is a counsellor who uses client-centred work to help people feel heard and understood. She draws on practical therapies to address stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. Her manner is calm and encouraging, aimed at helping people take the first steps toward feeling steadier.

She has worked professionally for 11 years in both India and the United Kingdom. That experience has given her a range of ways to respond when someone is struggling with low self-esteem, motivation or confidence.

Background and approach

She also supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, as well as addiction-related problems. In sessions she focuses on helping people notice patterns that cause pain and try small, manageable changes. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioural approaches and acceptance and commitment methods to help with thoughts and behaviours.

Dialectical skills and existential ideas are available when clients need tools for emotion regulation or to explore life meaning. Conversations are straightforward and paced to suit each person. The aim is to build skills for coping with life changes, work pressures, parenting strain and relationship difficulties.

She pays attention to practical steps for sleep, eating and daily routines when these are getting in the way of recovery. People can expect a compassionate, non-judgemental style that invites honest talk about difficult topics like abandonment, codependency or domestic violence. Sessions can also address career dilemmas, bipolar mood challenges and intimacy-related issues as they arise.

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel genuinely heard. It helps when someone needs space to talk things through and decide their own next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers hands-on exercises to change habits that cause distress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, helps people identify values and take committed steps even when uncomfortable feelings are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss which methods suit a person's goals and preferences and develop a plan together. That way techniques are chosen to match the problem - whether it's panic, low mood, relationship worries or coping after a difficult event.

Online therapy can be flexible and practical. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins and steady support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to try approaches that work for the individual.
