Jessica Townsend

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. My name is Jessica and I’m a person-centred, integrative counsellor. I’m able to incorporate different therapeutic models, skills and techniques to meet the needs of each individual.

I have over 4 years of professional work experience and I believe the most important element for successful counselling is the therapeutic relationship. My role is to offer a non-judgmental, confidential and empathic space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.

Counselling offers you the freedom to discuss your difficulties and help you gain an insight into your emotions and behaviours. I’m motivated to help individuals find the awareness, clarify and resources to help themselves. Together we can address immediate problems and identify habits that are affecting you and your relationships.

I work psychodynamically which means being aware of how our past effects the present, greater awareness allows us to make better choices and fulfil our potential.

Choosing counselling is the first step forward in resolving your difficulties. Whether you are looking to explore current issues, gain an understanding of how your past affects you today or have concerns about the future, I will support you on your journey.

My areas of expertise are: anxiety, stress, depression, bereavement, loss, self-esteem, trauma, work related issues, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, child related issues and addiction.

Clinical approaches: Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Gestalt, Solution Based Therapy.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. A key benefit is flexibility – you can connect in the way that suits you best, whether that is a video call, a phone session, live chat or in-app messaging. This makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to access support when meeting in person is difficult. Licensed professionals provide online counselling, and clients have the option to change therapists if they want a different fit. For many people, the convenience and comparable effectiveness make online therapy a practical and helpful option as part of their mental health care.
