About Jarred

Jarred Kellerman is a PACFA counsellor with ten years of counselling and education experience. He supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career questions, depression and major life changes. He also focuses on communication problems, loneliness, life purpose, panic attacks and social anxiety and phobia.

Jarred uses straightforward, evidence-based methods in sessions. He listens to what feels most pressing and works with each person to set practical steps. Conversations aim to identify patterns, build coping strategies and practise skills that can be used between appointments.

Sessions often include skills from cognitive approaches and acceptance-based work to help with unhelpful thoughts and difficult feelings. He also draws on person-centred ideas to keep sessions grounded in what matters to the client. These approaches are used to address specific problems such as panic attacks or fears around social situations.

Jarred has a background supporting young people and families, including school disengagement, motivation difficulties and social isolation. That experience informs how he supports clients who are nervous about speaking up or meeting new people. He explains techniques clearly and keeps the pace manageable.

People who choose to work with Jarred typically start by outlining a few priorities. Future sessions focus on building confidence, testing small changes and tracking progress. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches and online sessions work together

Jarred commonly uses cognitive approaches and acceptance-based work to address anxiety and panic. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises. Acceptance-based techniques help people notice difficult feelings and commit to values-based actions even when anxiety is present.

He also uses person-centred conversation to keep sessions grounded in what matters to the client. That means the therapist listens, reflects what is important and collaborates on which techniques to try. Finding the right mix is treated as a shared process and may change as goals evolve.

Confirm the exact online session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week and to practise skills in everyday settings. They can also allow for shorter check-ins when time or bandwidth is limited. The therapist will discuss which session length and format suit the client's needs and daily routine.
