Debbie Jepps-Finn , NCPS

Debbie Jepps-Finn is a counsellor who uses a people-centred approach to help with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and trauma. She draws on practical talking therapy and simple tools to help clients improve self‑esteem, motivation and day-to-day coping. Debbie works with adults on issues like grieving, addiction, eating and sleeping problems, and challenges linked to identity and intimacy.

She trained to the NCPS standard and has eight years of experience working in the United Kingdom. Much of her background comes from charity work, which gave her wide exposure to different life situations and pressures. That experience shaped a straightforward way of working focused on listening and practical support.

In sessions she creates a warm, non‑judgemental space where people can speak frankly about difficult things. Conversations are tailored to the person, with a mixture of reflective listening and actionable exercises when useful. Debbie uses Client‑Centered techniques alongside cognitive behavioural and mindfulness ideas to help people notice patterns and try small, manageable changes.

She also draws on psychodynamic thinking to help people make sense of longer standing patterns and attachment issues. That combination lets her balance short‑term problem solving with deeper personal exploration. Clients can expect a steady, empathic presence and clear ideas about next steps.

Debbie supports people through life changes such as separation, fertility concerns, bereavement and the aftermath of abuse. She aims to help each person build resilience and practical coping skills they can keep using after therapy ends.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online sessions

Client‑Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. It helps people feel heard and supported so they can explore their own solutions and sense of self. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours interact and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and suggest which methods to try first. That collaborative process means plans can be adjusted as needs change and progress is reviewed together.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people read non‑verbal cues and work through material in real time. Phone sessions suit quieter audio‑only conversations or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check‑ins, brief exercises or when people prefer written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between sessions.
