Background and approach

Jolian listens for the patterns that keep problems cycling and looks for simple, practical steps to change them. Jolian draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help manage unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to reconnect people with what matters to them.

Those approaches sit alongside client-centred and existential ideas to keep the work grounded in the person’s experience. Before moving into independent practice, Jolian led frontline services across England and Wales for national health and care charities. That background shapes his understanding of long hours, high responsibility and emotional labour.

He holds an MSc (Res) in Psychological and Behavioural Sciences, a BSc (Hons) in Psychology, and a Level 5 Professional Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling. He is accredited with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society, NCPS. Jolian aims to work at a pace that feels manageable for each person.

How Jolian’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small, value-led steps despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is useful for stress, anxiety and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques to reduce unhelpful thinking and behaviour. It suits worries, low mood and sleep problems. Client-Centred Therapy concentrates on empathic listening and building a trusting relationship so people can explore worries at their own pace.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what you want to change, what has helped before and how you prefer to work. Together you can try one method or combine elements until something fits your goals and day-to-day life.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. Video calls allow a face-to-face conversation when that is helpful, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a good option during a short break. Live chat or text-based messaging support quick check-ins, written reflections or ongoing conversation between sessions. These formats increase flexibility and make it simpler to keep therapy going alongside work and caring responsibilities.
