About Jessica
Jessica Henderson is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has three years' experience in mental health work in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression and self-esteem problems, and she lists social anxiety and phobia among her focus areas. Her background in mental health nursing informs the way she works now as a counsellor.
Jessica uses straightforward, conversational sessions. She listens and follows what each person brings to the room, then uses approaches such as client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques when helpful. She also draws on trauma-focused methods for people coping with abuse or traumatic events.
In practical terms she aims to make sessions clear and goal-oriented. People can expect to talk through current problems, try small changes between meetings, and review what helps over time. She supports work on sleep, eating, relationships, parenting and career concerns as listed in her focus areas.
Her work covers a wide range of life stresses including addiction, bipolar management, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Jessica also addresses more specific issues such as commitment and control problems, jealousy, isolation and obsessive-compulsive behaviours.
Sessions are conducted in English and she is based in the United Kingdom. She does not accept international clients. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial appointment.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a practical working relationship. It involves open conversation about what matters to the person and helps clarify goals and priorities.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and actions together. It helps with anxiety, social fears and low mood by trying specific exercises and small behaviour changes between sessions.
Trauma-Focused Therapy works with reactions that follow abuse or traumatic events. It uses careful pacing and specific techniques to reduce distress linked to those memories.
Finding which approach fits is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods to the client's needs, goals and preferences. That makes sessions a collaborative process rather than a fixed plan.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life - for example by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every meeting. Registered or accredited professionals can use these practical arrangements to help therapy fit around work and family commitments.
