Jessica Henderson is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and grief.
About Jessica
Jessica Henderson is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also supports people dealing with trauma, domestic violence, low self-esteem and motivation. Jessica writes simply and directly, and she aims to make the first step feel manageable for someone who is unsure about therapy.
Jessica trained as a Person Centred counsellor and also has knowledge of cognitive behavioural approaches for anxiety and depression. She uses those approaches to shape conversations and practical tasks during sessions.
Background and approach
Her background includes work as a registered mental health nurse, which informs how she listens and plans care. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her. Jessica listens for values, goals and the obstacles that keep someone stuck.
She then works collaboratively to set small, realistic steps that fit day-to-day life. This can include simple exercises to try between sessions and new ways to handle difficult feelings. Her style is warm and straightforward.
People can expect clear explanations about why they might be feeling a certain way and what they can try next. Jessica aims to build a calm space where someone can talk things through without being judged. Because she has three years of experience, Jessica balances practical strategies with attentive listening.
She adapts the pace to each person and checks in on progress. Her work suits people who want a mix of conversational support and exercises to help them cope better.

Approaches Jessica lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. It often uses short exercises and practical tasks to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jessica will discuss options and try methods together to see what fits the person's goals and preferences. She adapts the mix of listening and practical work as progress is made.
Online sessions offer flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let people read facial cues and use screen-shared worksheets. Phone sessions can be quicker check-ins or work better where bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter, written check-ins and tasks between sessions. These formats allow therapy to continue even when travel or scheduling would otherwise be a barrier, and they let people choose what feels most comfortable.
