I offer individual online counselling for adults. Sessions are 50 minutes. I can offer short or long-term therapy.

My work begins with creating a safe, reflective space where you can explore what’s happening beneath the surface. I support you to reflect more deeply on understand what might be shaping your current emotions, behaviours and relationships. We work together to help you identify contributing narratives and personal history.  

I aim to empower clients to move beyond the familiar, inviting different perspectives and insights, a place from which they are then able to unpick difficult, painful ways of being.

My work is integrative and trauma-aware, blending insight-based exploration with embodied awareness where helpful. Sessions are collaborative and we go at your pace, supporting you to build clarity, self-awareness and emotional resilience.  

I am an Integrative Counsellor, meaning I am able to draw dynamically on a range of approaches in order to most effectively tailor the therapy to you. My work combines evidence-based psychology with holistic, body-aware, and mindfulness-based approaches, because it is at this intersection I believe the deepest healing can take place.

My training enables me to draw on the following modalities:

• Person-centred Therapy

• Gestalt

• Psychosynthesis

• Mindfulness and Meditation

• Transpersonal Psychology

• Somatic and body-focused therapy

• Emotional-focused therapy

• Humanistic Therapies

• Positive Psychology

• Existential Therapy

This flexibility allows therapy to meet you where you are, supporting both healing and personal growth.

Many clients come to counselling for the first time feeling unsure or nervous. I take time to help you settle, understand the process and move at a pace that feels manageable. The sessions unfold according to your needs and we work together to build safety, understanding and trust.

Many first-time clients find that simply having space to talk freely and be listened to with care begins to ease the pressure they’ve been carrying.

I offer individual therapy sessions £50 for 50 min.
All counselling session are online via videocall.

I work UK-wide. A range of times and days are available.

I offer some places at a reduced fee for low-income clients where requested.

The first session is a gentle conversation where we explore what has brought you to therapy, what you are hoping to change, and what support might be most effective. We will begin to lightly explore areas like your personal history, relationships, current struggles or challenging patterns of behaviours. You can ask questions about how I work and share only what you feel comfortable and ready to.

Many clients say the first session helps them feel clearer about what they need and what therapy might offer.

I work with adults seeking support with anxiety, depression, family issues, trauma, low self-esteem, stress, grief, addictions, eating disorders, relationship problems, work-related stress, life transitions and emotional overwhelm. Find my extensive list (here).Many people also come to therapy to develop self-awareness, reconnect with themselves or create a more meaningful way of living.Together we explore what is not working and what will help you find a way forward.

I work with people from all backgrounds and warmly welcome diversity in all its forms, including LGBTQ+ clients, neurodivergent individuals, and those exploring identity, spirituality, or alternative relationship structures such as non-monogamy and polyamory.

It is completely normal to feel uncertain at the start. If after our initial conversation it doesn’t feel quite right, there is no pressure to continue. I am happy to discuss what you might be looking for and, where appropriate, signpost you to other forms of support.

Yes - as a recover of an eating disorder myself I have particular experience and specialism in - addiction, body image, bulimia, disordered eating, binge-eating. I have also specifically worked in depth with Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD).

I work online only. I offer secure online counselling using encrypted platforms, making therapy accessible wherever you are located. Online sessions suit people who require a flexible, accessible way to  receive mental health support.

This varies from person to person. Some clients benefit from a short-term focus of six sessions, while more commonly others choose longer-term therapy to explore more deeply. We review the work regularly to ensure the pace and structure feels right for you. There is no obligation to commit beyond what feels genuinely supportive.

You can reach out through the contact form (here) or by email (jess.deayala.therapist@gmail.com). I offer a free 20-minute introductory videocall where you can outline what you’re looking for and get a feel for my approach. This conversation helps you decide whether working together feels like the right fit.

Yes. Everything shared in counselling is confidential, with the exception of specific legal or safety requirements, which I explain clearly before we begin. Your privacy is central to the therapeutic relationship.
