About Jessica
Jessica Reed is a counsellor registered as NCPS with five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults who struggle with stress, anxiety, anger and relationship difficulties. She also supports people dealing with grief, addiction, sleep and eating problems, and career or life changes.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on what is happening now and how patterns from the past may be keeping things stuck. She explains ideas simply and helps people name emotions and reactions so they can try new responses when situations trigger anger or frustration.
Jessica uses attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships shape reactions. She brings client-centred listening to each meeting, so the person's own goals steer the work. Mindfulness practices are offered to help manage high arousal and build tolerance for distressing feelings.
She also draws on psychodynamic thinking to spot repeated patterns that show up in relationships and daily life. Somatic techniques may be used to notice how the body holds stress and tension, and to learn calmer physical responses.
Sessions are a steady mix of talking, noticing patterns, and trying short exercises between meetings. Progress is paced to the person's needs and comfort, with practical steps to reduce angry outbursts, manage simmering resentment, and improve communication with people close to them.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Jessica often blends attachment-based thinking and mindfulness in her work. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships shape patterns of reacting and relating, which can help when anger keeps repeating in close relationships. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple awareness skills to notice rising anger, slow down reactions and reduce impulsive outbursts.She also uses client-centred listening, which means the person's goals guide what they try together. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and make practical decisions together about which techniques to use and when.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as arranging shorter check-ins during a work break or joining a session without travelling. It can also allow practising mindfulness or body-awareness exercises in daily settings and discussing how to apply them between meetings.
