Jeannette Mason, BACP

Jeannette Mason is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with a practical, people-centred approach. She uses clear, conversational work to help people manage anxiety, depression and major life changes. Jeannette aims to create a calm space where clients can talk through what matters and begin to feel steadier.

She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Mindfulness techniques are used to anchor moments of overwhelming emotion and reduce reactivity. Solution-focused steps help set small, achievable goals so progress can be measured week to week.

Jeannette has four years' experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. Her background in general nursing informs a practical focus on wellbeing and on coping when physical illness is involved. She also has a postgraduate diploma in Transactional Analysis from an integrative perspective.

The work is warm and interactive. Jeannette adapts what she does to each person rather than using one fixed method. Sessions explore feelings, relationship patterns, self-esteem and practical ways to manage stress, sleep problems or grief.

People who have concerns about ADHD, trauma, relationship strain or career stress will find straightforward support for managing symptoms and making sense of recurring difficulties. Jeannette explains options together with clients and plans the next steps based on what each person needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Jeannette commonly uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationship patterns still affect feelings and choices today. This approach helps when people want to understand repeating difficulties in relationships and build a stronger sense of self.

She also incorporates mindfulness techniques to teach simple breathing and attention practices that reduce anxiety and help manage strong emotions. These skills can be practised between sessions to make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Jeannette will talk through your goals and preferences and together you will choose which methods to try first. She expects the plan to evolve as you notice what helps and what needs changing.

Please confirm which session formats are currently available before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around life - for example by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins during busy days, or removing the need to be on camera when audio is preferable. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt interventions like grounding, breathing and brief solution-focused tasks to an online setting so clients can practise new skills between sessions.
