Jessica Henderson, NCPS

Jessica Henderson is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and midlife crisis. She also helps those dealing with trauma, domestic violence, low self-esteem, motivation struggles and relationship concerns. Jessica brings a calm, respectful approach to early conversations so people feel heard and understood.

She trained in person-centred counselling and uses that way of working to focus on each person’s goals and experience. She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to help with anxious or low mood patterns. Trauma-focused work is used where past harm affects daily life.

Jessica has three years of professional experience in mental health and holds NCPS as a listed credential. She explains options clearly and tailors sessions to what each person needs. Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward, with steps you can try between meetings.

People describe practical goals such as better sleep, clearer boundaries, coping with life changes and managing overwhelming thoughts. Jessica helps break these goals into small, manageable steps and checks in on progress.

Taking the first step can feel hard. Jessica offers a patient, non-judgemental space to talk through worries and identify what matters next. She encourages clients to set the pace and shape the work together.

How Jessica’s approaches translate to online work

Jessica uses person-centred counselling to focus on what matters to you, listening and reflecting so you can find your own solutions. This approach helps when life changes feel overwhelming or when you need clearer direction.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviour interact. CBT offers simple tools for managing anxiety, low mood and sleep problems through small, practical experiments and thought checking.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work Jessica does with each person. She will talk through options, try different techniques and agree together what feels most helpful for your goals and preferences.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, avoid travel time and use shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to travel or who need to schedule sessions around work or caregiving. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often adapt tools and exercises so they work well at a distance, and your counsellor can suggest how to get the most from remote meetings.
