About Jessica

Jessica Russell works from a practical, person-centred stance that aims to build on each person's strengths. She uses approachable language and steady support to help people facing stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, relationship difficulties, and low self-esteem. Jessica encourages people to recognise their own knowledge about their lives while offering guidance through change.

She has six years of experience working with people on motivation, confidence and coping with life changes. Sessions often look at communication problems, feelings of guilt and shame, and experiences of isolation or loneliness.

Background and approach

Jessica also supports people dealing with panic and panic attacks, questions about sexuality, women’s issues and workplace pressures. In the room she focuses on practical steps and small changes that add up over time. She helps people try new ways of communicating, manage anxious moments, and build self-love and clearer life purpose.

The tone is collaborative and respectful throughout. Jessica is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers therapy in English and works from the United Kingdom.

Prospective clients are invited to consider what they want to change before making first contact. To begin, people usually reflect on immediate priorities and practical goals. From there she helps set simple, achievable actions and reviews progress together.

The work balances honest conversation with concrete tools for day-to-day life.

How Jessica works online

Jessica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to solve immediate problems and build longer-term skills. One approach focuses on managing anxiety and panic through simple breathing and grounding practices, paired with work on thoughts that increase worry. Another approach helps strengthen communication and confidence by practising new ways of speaking and setting boundaries, useful for workplace issues and relationship concerns.

Choosing the best approach is a shared decision. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those aims. Progress is checked regularly and the plan is adjusted when needed so the work stays relevant and practical.

Please confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy routine, save travel time and allow shorter check-ins when required. It can also help people access support from their own location without needing to change their daily schedule.
