About Jayati

Jayati De Cruz is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. Jayati works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, LGBTQIA+ related issues, trauma and abuse, and people coping with life changes. They also offer support around relationships, grief, addictions and concerns such as eating, sleeping and self-esteem.

Jayati uses clear, conversational ways of working. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps a person can try between meetings. They draw on Client-Centred ideas to listen without judgement and on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to spot patterns in thoughts and behaviour. Mindfulness tools are used to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.

In a typical session Jayati helps people name what feels most urgent and then breaks concerns into manageable parts. Together they try out small experiments and reflect on what helps. The approach is collaborative and paced to the client’s needs.

Jayati pays attention to issues that often sit under other problems, such as attachment, abandonment, codependency and body image. They also support people dealing with career questions, midlife shifts and a search for life purpose.

Sessions are conducted in English and for people based in the United Kingdom. Before a first meeting Jayati encourages clients to think about what they want to address and to bring one or two concrete examples to discuss.

How Jayati uses therapeutic approaches online

Client-Centred Therapy is about listening closely and reflecting back what a person says. Online sessions using this approach focus on understanding the client’s priorities and building a working relationship that guides the work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. In online sessions CBT work often involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practising small behavioural experiments between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy involves short practices to increase awareness of physical sensations and present-moment experience. These practices can help reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jayati will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods to the client’s goals and preferences. They aim to decide collaboratively which techniques to try and review how those techniques are helping over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people try different ways of working - for example more skills practice one week or a longer reflective session the next - depending on what fits into everyday life.
