About Jessica
Jessica Harris welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about next steps. She aims to make the first conversations straightforward and approachable so clients can describe what matters to them without jargon. Jessica uses an individualised style that focuses on each person's situation.
She listens for the patterns that keep coming up and helps people spot small, practical changes they can try between sessions. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with room to notice feelings and personal history.
Background and approach
Her background includes three years of professional practice in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often shown as BACP. That registration means she works within a recognised professional framework.
Jessica draws on client-centred work to keep sessions respectful and collaborative. She also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to look at unhelpful thoughts and psychodynamic thinking to consider how past experiences shape how people relate to others. These approaches are used as tools to match what each person needs.
She has experience with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting pressures, career worries and identity concerns related to LGBT issues. Additional areas she focusses on include attachment and abandonment, body image, loneliness, workplace stress and multicultural worries. Therapy is offered in English and is available to people inside and outside the UK.
Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging depending on what suits the client.

Approaches Jessica lists

Online support
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and the behaviours that follow them. It is practical and often used for anxiety, low mood and stress by developing skills and small experiments to change patterns.
Psychodynamic work pays attention to past relationships and recurring patterns that affect how people connect with others today. It can be useful when someone wants to understand deeper, long-standing difficulties.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to the client's goals and preferences. Early sessions are used to try things out and find what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility to fit around work, study or family life. Video calls let people use visual connection, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can suit shorter check-ins or days when writing feels easier. These formats make it simpler to keep continuity and work on goals from wherever is most practical.
