Jessica Dodd, BACP

Counsellor Jessica Dodd is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with five years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people with stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self esteem and compassion fatigue. Jessica also supports people concerned about attachment, body image, codependency and communication problems.

Jessica works in a person-centred way and draws on other evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. She aims to listen, reflect and help people make sense of difficult feelings and patterns.

Typical work includes talking through anxiety and panic symptoms, dealing with workplace stress, and supporting people through separation or bereavement. Jessica also offers support around guilt, shame and isolation. She addresses issues linked to pregnancy and childbirth and helps people understand attachment and inner child concerns.

Her approach involves practical conversation and reflective exercises rather than jargon. People can expect focused listening, questions that clarify recurring patterns, and gentle encouragement to try different ways of relating to themselves and others. Decisions about techniques are shared rather than imposed.

Sessions generally concentrate on what matters now while connecting it to past experiences that shape current feelings. Jessica explains options and discusses progress as therapy continues. She asks clients about goals, and adapts the pace to each person's needs.
