About Jessica

Jessica Orwin is a counsellor who works from a person-centred approach. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about stress, anxiety, relationships, grief and eating and food-related issues. She aims to walk alongside clients as they make sense of difficult feelings and life changes.

Jess uses Client-Centred Therapy to help people feel heard and understood. She places emphasis on empathy and acceptance so clients can explore difficult emotions without pressure. This approach is suited to worries about self-esteem, body image, loneliness and coping with change.

Alongside that, she draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat in relationships. This can help when issues like attachment, abandonment or dependent personality traits affect day-to-day life. Talking about past experiences can shed light on present difficulties.

Her work often covers a wide range of concerns including addiction, trauma and abuse, anger, and communication problems. She also supports people facing cancer, fatherhood issues, blended family challenges and forgiveness work. Jess pays attention to what matters most to each person.

Jessica holds BACP accreditation, and she practices in the United Kingdom. She works in English and is available to international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the listed process.

How client-centred and psychodynamic work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening with genuine empathy and offering acceptance. It helps people who feel overwhelmed, unsure about themselves, or stuck in low self-esteem to talk things through and build self-understanding.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns from past relationships and how they show up now. It can help with repeated difficulties like attachment struggles, abandonment fears or ongoing relationship issues by making those patterns clearer through conversation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s needs and goals. Together they will check how sessions are going and adjust the focus as understanding grows.

Practical benefits of online therapy include making sessions easier to fit around work, study or family life and reducing travel time. Online meetings can allow for shorter check-ins when life gets busy, or more flexible scheduling for people in different locations. The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking to ensure they suit your routine.
