Jose Pando, BACP

Jose Pando helps people dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, addictions and relationship problems. He also supports those facing grief, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, parenting strain and intimacy-related issues. Jose works in English and Portuguese and offers online sessions for people inside and outside the United Kingdom.

His approach is warm and interactive. He listens first, then helps people name what matters most to them. Sessions mix talking, practical techniques and reflections about past patterns so people can make small, steady changes.

Jose draws on a range of methods. He uses client-centred work to follow each person’s priorities. Cognitive behavioural tools help with unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Motivational interviewing supports change when someone feels stuck. He also brings psychodynamic and trauma-focused ideas when looking at deeper patterns and past hurt.

Jose has five years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation. He frames people as experts on their own lives and focuses on their strengths while working through difficult moments. He adapts the pace and plan to each person’s needs.

Practical details are straightforward. Sessions are available by video, phone, live chat or messaging. Subscriptions can be cancelled at any time and pricing varies by location and therapist availability. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a session.

How Jose’s approaches work online

Client-centred work focuses on the person and their priorities. It means sessions follow what matters most to the individual and build on their strengths. This approach is useful when someone wants a supportive space to think things through.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps people spot and change thoughts and behaviours that contribute to stress, anxiety and low mood. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to test new ways of coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jose will work together with each person to choose or combine methods that suit their goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative planning makes it easier to try techniques and adjust the plan over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility for different schedules and lifestyles. Video calls are close to face-to-face work and allow visual connection. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer typing, want brief check-ins, or need to work around a busy day. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, can deliver effective care through these formats while keeping sessions focused and practical.
