Holly Jones, NCPS

Holly Jones offers a warm, person-focused approach that puts what matters to the client first. She draws on practical therapies to help people manage anxiety, stress, addiction and difficult life changes. Holly uses short, clear steps so conversations feel useful from the start.

Holly has six years of professional experience and more than 2,000 client hours. She is a member of the National Counselling Society, NCPS, and has worked in both the NHS and charity settings. That background means she has supported people through trauma, grief and the aftermath of abuse.

Her work often addresses complex grief, suicide bereavement and post-traumatic reactions. Holly also helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, eating and sleeping problems, anger and low self-esteem. She supports people facing chronic illness, caregiving stress and shifts in career or life direction.

In sessions she uses practical tools from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment approaches and attachment-focused ideas. Conversations are client-centred and paced to feel manageable. The aim is to build skills, notice patterns and try small changes that fit daily life.

Holly previously volunteered with services for adult survivors of childhood abuse and now works with a charity supporting people bereaved by suicide. She also drew on over 20 years in the corporate world before retraining, which helps her understand workplace stress and career transitions.

People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space where the therapist listens and helps set realistic steps. Holly focuses on what the person wants to change and supports them through each stage of that process.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and focus on actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for stress, anxiety and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help with intimacy, trust and ongoing patterns stemming from childhood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then try methods that suit the person. That collaboration means sessions can shift over time if something different would work better.

Online therapy with Holly uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video sessions let people talk face to face from wherever they are. Phone calls are useful when bandwidth is limited or a simple check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief updates, quick coping support or when typed conversation feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible for work, family commitments and different daily rhythms.
