Jess has experience working with children, teenagers, adults, and new and expectant parents within perinatal settings. She supports individuals with a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties, and has a particular interest in helping people explore their identity, including where neurodiversity may be part of their experience.

At the heart of Jess’s work is the importance of building a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship. She takes a collaborative and compassionate approach, working alongside clients to develop a shared understanding of their difficulties and create meaningful, personalised goals.
