Jessica Harris, BACP

Jessica Harris is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports carers and other adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and low self-esteem. She holds BACP accreditation and brings three years of professional experience to her practice. Jessica aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where people can begin to sort things out at their own pace.

She focuses on everyday problems like depression, motivation and coping with life changes. She also works with issues linked to sexuality and identity, including LGBT concerns, and with intimacy-related difficulties. Jessica pays attention to how work, parenting and caregiving pressures can affect mood and relationships.

Jessica adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s needs. She uses a mix of client-centred listening, cognitive ideas about thoughts and actions, and psychodynamic thinking about past patterns. This blend helps with practical change and with understanding long-standing feelings.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and collaborative. Jessica will help set goals and try out approaches that feel useful. Her style is warm and direct, with a focus on what you want to achieve.

If you are juggling caring responsibilities and personal strain, she offers help to manage stress, guilt, isolation and difficult emotions. To begin, follow the site's Start Therapy steps and complete the matching questionnaire to find a suitable time.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what you say and helps you find your own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and uses practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to repeated relationship patterns and early life experiences that shape current reactions and feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together you will try approaches and adjust them if something does not fit, so the process stays collaborative and goal-focused.

Confirm which session formats are available before booking because the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around caring duties, work and travel. It can allow shorter check-ins, sessions at different times of day, and less time spent travelling. Discussing these practical options during the initial matching step will help choose arrangements that suit everyday life.
