About Jeff
Jeff Hutchens is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with seven years of experience. He lists stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger, self-esteem and other areas among his main focuses, including social anxiety and phobia. He works in English and accepts international clients.
Jeff uses a client-centred way of working that keeps the person’s priorities at the centre. He combines that with techniques from cognitive behavioural approaches and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address thinking patterns and unhelpful behaviours. He also offers hypnotherapy as an additional tool when it fits a person’s goals.
Sessions are practical and conversational. He listens, helps people clarify what matters to them, and uses short exercises to try new ways of responding. For social anxiety and phobia this might mean breaking down feared situations into small steps and practising coping strategies between sessions.
Jeff also draws on emotionally-focused ideas when relationships and attachment are involved. That can help people notice patterns in how they relate to others and find different ways to connect or set boundaries. He names coaching skills among his background, which he uses to support goal-setting and skill building.
He describes a collaborative approach where the client’s pace leads the work. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first appointment.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that fit their values. It offers simple exercises to reduce avoidance and increase meaningful activity, which can be useful for anxiety and life changes. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises the person’s own priorities. The therapist listens and follows what the person brings, supporting them to find their own solutions and set practical goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses step-by-step techniques to test anxious predictions and build new habits, often with short practices between sessions. Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss different methods and work with the client to decide which strategies suit their needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative planning can be revisited as work progresses. When booking, confirm which session formats are currently offered before you sign up. The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around daily life, shorter check-ins when needed, and easier access for international clients. These factors can make it simpler to practise strategies between meetings and to sustain regular appointments.Areas of expertise
