Holly Jones , NCPS

Holly Jones is a UK-licensed counsellor and an accredited member of the National Counselling Society. She also holds membership with the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapy and practices in line with their ethical standards.

Holly specialises in childhood trauma, grief, surviving sexual abuse, and the impact of suicide, and she has supported people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, family conflict, and other trauma-related concerns during her time in the NHS and in voluntary roles. She has worked with adult survivors of child sexual, physical, and emotional abuse and with people experiencing PTSD, and she currently provides counselling for those bereaved by suicide.

Holly has over six years of professional experience and more than 2,000 client hours. She previously spent over two years working within the NHS and volunteered with charities focused on survivor support. Before retraining for counselling she spent more than 20 years in the corporate world and has drawn on those life experiences to inform her therapeutic work.

Her practice emphasises a compassionate, nonjudgmental approach that moves at the client’s pace. Holly aims to create an environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored safely and where people find support and empowerment as they take steps toward change. She works collaboratively with clients to identify goals and to tailor the therapeutic process to each person’s needs.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and it supports taking steps that align with personal values - useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns of relating and can be helpful for issues like abandonment, relationship difficulties, and complex trauma. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours, and it is often used for anxiety, low mood, and managing day-to-day symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Holly will work with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and needs, and she will adapt techniques from these models to find the best fit as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with Holly is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, mobility limitations, or clients in other locations. Working remotely allows licensed professionals to offer consistent, accessible support while accommodating different communication styles and practical needs.
