About Jyotsana
Jyotsana Gilmore uses a person-centred approach to make sense of tough feelings. She draws on practical methods to help people cope with stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. Her style is calm and straightforward, and she aims to make sessions feel like a safe place to talk.
She has worked in both India and the United Kingdom and has 11 years of experience. That time has covered a wide range of concerns including relationship difficulties, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and bipolar mood issues.
Background and approach
She also helps people with eating and sleeping struggles, career stress and life changes. Sessions focus on what matters to each person. Jyotsana blends client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural techniques and elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy.
She uses these approaches to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, practise new skills and make values-based choices. People who contact her often want practical ways to manage strong emotions, improve communication or rebuild confidence after loss or upheaval. She also supports those dealing with parenting stress, caregiver strain and blended family concerns.
Work may include short-term strategies and longer conversations about meaning and direction. Jyotsana holds BACP and NCPS credentials, which appear with her name. Sessions are offered in English and are available to clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jyotsana will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together the therapist and client decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls are good for full conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, shorter check-ins fit well over live chat, and text messaging can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while still working through the same therapeutic tools.
