Jessica Henderson , NCPS

Jessica Henderson works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood and grief. She also supports those facing trauma, domestic violence, addiction and issues around self-esteem and relationships. Jessica’s approach is caring and direct, aimed at helping people make small, practical changes that feel manageable.

Jessica has three years of experience in mental health. She trained and worked as a registered mental health nurse and now practises as a counsellor. Her NCPS credential is listed as part of her professional details.

In sessions she adapts the pace to each person. Conversations focus on the issues you bring and on steps you can try between meetings. She uses client-centred ways of working to make room for your priorities and choices.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to help spot unhelpful thinking and to test new behaviours. For people affected by traumatic events, Jessica offers trauma-focused approaches that look at safety, stabilisation and approachable ways to process difficult memories.

Jessica offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. She works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that fit their timetable.

Online approaches that suit stress and trauma

Jessica works with client-centred methods that keep the person’s priorities at the heart of sessions. This approach means the conversation follows what feels most important to you and focuses on building strengths and choices.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, a practical way to spot patterns of thinking and behaviour that increase worry or low mood. CBT helps break those patterns by trying small experiments and learning what changes feel useful.

For people affected by traumatic events she offers trauma-focused work that emphasises stabilisation, coping skills and stepwise processing of distressing memories. These methods aim to reduce the ways trauma interferes with daily life rather than promise a single outcome.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and practical needs and then adapt methods as therapy progresses in a collaborative way.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. These options give flexibility - video for face-to-face conversation, phone when bandwidth is limited, chat or messaging for quick check-ins or for people who prefer not to use video. Many people find these formats fit work schedules, caregiving duties or travel constraints while keeping continuity of care.
