About Thelma
Thelma Jones is a counsellor who uses person-centred work to support people through trauma, loss and overwhelming emotions. She presents a calm manner and offers a listening space where someone can feel heard and begin to make small changes. Thelma holds a BACP credential which is recorded as BACP in her profile.
With four years of practice in this setting and a much longer background in social work, she draws on experience supporting people with stress, anxiety and depression.
Background and approach
She also supports those dealing with relationship strain, grief, family concerns and trauma and abuse. Her approach aims to match each person’s pace and preferences. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as emotional processing.
Thelma uses gentle guidance and helps people identify coping skills they can use between sessions. She works in a non-judgemental way so people can talk through painful memories or current problems. She also addresses issues such as attachment problems, abandonment, communication difficulties and the impact of caregiving.
Body image, separation and challenges linked to autism or personality difficulties are included among her focus areas. Thelma helps people find ways to manage daily life more comfortably. People meet her for one-to-one conversations that aim to build confidence and reduce overwhelm.
The work is collaborative and aims to empower each person to try out new responses. Thelma supports people to set goals and to notice small signs of progress over time.

Approaches that guide online work and practical benefits
Person-centred counselling focuses on listening and empathy. It helps people feel heard and supported while they talk through trauma, grief or relationship worries. This approach encourages the person to lead the pace and decide what feels most helpful.Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to identify coping skills and small behavioural changes. These techniques aim to reduce anxiety, manage stress and help with low mood in everyday life. The emphasis is on practical tools you can try between sessions as well as on processing difficult experiences.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to understand their needs, goals and preferences, then agree which methods to try. Adjustments are made as therapy progresses so the work stays relevant and useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can work well when less bandwidth is available or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written conversation or want flexible, asynchronous contact. These options increase convenience and make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life.
