Jayati De Cruz, NCPS

Jayati De Cruz offers calm, direct support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or major life shifts. Jayati is non-binary and works in the United Kingdom. They aim to make first steps feel manageable and create space to talk without judgment.

Jayati uses plain conversation and practical techniques. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small changes that can make daily life easier. They draw on client-centred ideas to follow each person’s pace, and use cognitive behavioural tools to tackle difficult thoughts and habits.

Across four years of practice Jayati has helped people with depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, and challenges linked to gender identity. They also support people facing grief, addiction or workplace strain. A broad set of interests includes body image, attachment and codependency concerns.

Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Jayati aims to match the format to what works best for each person, whether that is a longer face-to-face style conversation on video or short check-ins by message.

People who meet Jayati can expect a respectful, patient approach and practical steps to try between sessions. The focus is on clear goals and steady progress. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to pair someone with the right therapist and scheduling follows from there.

How Jayati’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person in front of the counsellor. It helps when someone needs a respectful space to make sense of feelings and set personal goals.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers simple exercises to change unhelpful thinking and to try new habits, which can ease anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention exercises to reduce reactivity and to notice the present moment. It can be useful for stress, rumination and managing strong emotions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jayati will talk through options and test what fits best with each person's needs, goals and preferences. They collaborate on goals and adapt methods as progress is made.

Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls suit longer conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. Many people find this mix helps therapy fit around work, family and daily life.
