About Jessica
Jessica Douglas is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression and life changes. She also helps those dealing with relationship, family, eating and sleeping concerns, and people who are questioning their life purpose.
Jessica describes herself as an assimilative, integrative therapist who uses Transactional Analysis as her core model. She blends ideas from other approaches to match what someone wants to work on. She offers single-session work, short-term plans of around six to eight weeks, or longer-term therapy when that suits the person's goals.
In sessions she concentrates on conversation and reflection. She invites people to tell their story in their own words and then looks for patterns in how they relate to themselves and others. Practical planning and an agreed therapeutic contract are used to set goals and decide how progress will be reviewed.
Jessica notes that how long therapy takes depends on the aims set during treatment planning. She is open about switching approaches if something does not fit and encourages people to change therapist if the match is not right. Core appointment times are typically mid-morning to evening across four weekdays, with some evening and weekend slots available on request.
She follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework and will advise clients if illness affects her ability to deliver sessions, offering rescheduling or postponement as needed.
Using Transactional Analysis and integrative methods online
Jessica commonly bases her work on Transactional Analysis, a model that looks at how people relate to themselves and others. Online sessions using this approach focus on noticing repeated interaction patterns and testing new ways of communicating, which can help with relationship tensions, attachment concerns and feelings of being stuck.She also describes her work as assimilative and integrative, combining elements from different evidence-based techniques to meet the goals agreed in the therapeutic contract. That might include short, focused single sessions or a structured six to eight week plan when a practical, time-limited approach feels right.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss the options with the client, consider current goals and preferences, and adapt methods as the work progresses. That shared planning is used to set session length, frequency and aims together.
