Jessica FarleyBACP

Jessica Farley is a UK counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression and life changes. She has worked across charities and the private sector and brings three years of experience to her practice. Jessica treats people as individuals and focuses on compassionate, respectful listening to understand each person's story.

Her background includes work with trauma and abuse, including survivors of rape and sexual assault. She aims to create a calm space where difficult memories and strong feelings can be talked through at a comfortable pace. Jessica focuses on what the person needs now rather than labelling them by diagnosis.

In sessions she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people regain a sense of control and cope with panic, mood shifts, or overwhelming worry. She supports people concerned about attachment, abandonment, communication problems, or the emotional fallout of separation. Practical steps and simple tools are offered so change feels manageable.

Jessica holds BACP, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she draws on her experience to tailor work to each person. She works in English and practises in the United Kingdom. If you are thinking about starting therapy, she encourages a gentle first step and will work at a pace that suits you.

Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions focus on listening, understanding patterns, and trying small, realistic changes. Jessica aims to support people towards a clearer sense of purpose and steadier day-to-day coping.

How Jessica uses evidence-based approaches online

Jessica draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage distress. One common approach is trauma-focused work, which involves careful, paced discussion of distressing memories and practical grounding strategies to reduce intense reactions. This kind of work can help people who have experienced abuse or other traumatic events to feel less overwhelmed by memories and triggers.

Another frequently used approach focuses on mood and anxiety regulation through simple skills training. That work teaches breathing and grounding exercises, activity planning, and ways to notice and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. These techniques aim to make daily life feel steadier and more manageable.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify goals, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adapt as progress is made. Decisions are guided by what helps most in day-to-day life and by the client's preferences.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits you. Registered or accredited professionals can offer flexible appointments to help sessions fit around work, childcare and everyday life.
