About Jody

Background and approach
Many sessions aim to make sense of what is happening now and to find clearer ways to cope. Her work draws on a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers tools for changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour.
Client-centred methods focus on listening and reflecting what feels important to the client. Jody also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring patterns that might be rooted in past experiences. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set short-term goals and practical actions for immediate relief.
This blend lets sessions be flexible and outcome-orientated. She understands how painful loss, abandonment or family conflict can be, and she offers steady support through those challenges. Getting started is simple and suited to people who prefer clear steps and a collaborative style.
Therapy approaches and how they work online
Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens, reflects and helps the person find their own answers. This suits people who need space to be heard and to build confidence at their own pace.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills that change thinking and behaviour. It helps with anxiety, low mood and stress by breaking problems into steps and testing new ways of coping. Sessions can include short exercises and homework to try between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will work with the client to match methods to their goals and preferences. Over early sessions they review what helps and adjust the plan collaboratively.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier for short check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or who want quick, ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity when schedules change.
