Jaime Van Weede is an MNCPS accredited counsellor working from the Dartington Estate in South Devon. She is a member of the BACP, holds an enhanced DBS (a detailed criminal records check) and a Level 3 certificate in Safeguarding.
Jaime believes counselling helps increase self-awareness and supports people who feel stuck, face difficult decisions, or wish to process specific experiences. Spending time in a safe, non-judgemental space can open up new ways of seeing familiar problems and offer fresh perspective.
She aims to build a therapeutic relationship that supports curiosity and discovery, and sees the fit between client and counsellor as an important part of that work. Each counselling journey is individual - some people find only a few sessions helpful while others benefit from longer term support - and Jaime reviews progress with clients at agreed points to make sure the pace and focus remain appropriate.
Jaime understands what it feels like to experience anxiety and to feel out of place, and she can empathise when clients describe feelings of anxiety, loneliness, fear or uncertainty.
Her training was integrative, and she primarily uses a person-centred approach when sessions begin. As therapy develops she can introduce cognitive behavioural techniques or Gestalt work, which concentrates on the here and now to bring new awareness to current issues.
She also has a personal interest in neurodiversity, informed by her own family’s journey to diagnosis and by her experience working with young people.
