About Jessica Douglas
Jessica Douglas approaches psychotherapy as a psychological method for exploring and addressing the issues a person brings to therapy. She aims to create a welcoming space where individuals can tell their story in their own words and examine what is happening for them with care and attentive listening.
She works as an assimilative, integrative therapist and describes herself as "human first - everything else second." Her core training uses Transactional Analysis as the primary model, and she adapts techniques from other approaches to fit each person’s needs, shaping an individualized treatment plan and therapeutic contract.
For Jessica, the therapeutic relationship is fundamentally two people relating through the lens of their lived experience. While she may not have lived the same life as every client, she listens with curiosity, reflection, and thoughtful feedback to help clients make sense of their journey.
Her practice offers flexible formats and timeframes. She can work within a single-session approach - sometimes called "therapy plus" - or plan short-term work of around six to eight weeks, and longer term psychotherapy of twenty or more sessions where appropriate. She acknowledges that how long therapy takes depends on the goals set during treatment planning and the agreed therapeutic contract.
Her usual hours are 10am - 7pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, with evening and weekend appointments available on request. In line with the BACP Ethical Framework, she monitors her own wellbeing and, if unwell, will inform clients and offer the choice to reschedule or postpone sessions until she has sufficiently recovered.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care
Jessica Douglas bases much of her work on Transactional Analysis, a model that explores patterns in how people relate to themselves and others to help clarify unhelpful interactions and support healthier ways of relating. She combines this with an assimilative, integrative approach that draws selectively from different evidence-based techniques so that each plan fits the person rather than forcing the person to fit a single method. She also offers flexible formats, including a single-session option or brief focused courses of work, useful when specific problems or short-term goals are the priority.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jessica works collaboratively with clients to identify goals, preferences, and practical constraints, and together they test and adjust methods to find the best fit for the person’s needs.
Online therapy with Jessica is delivered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people balancing work, family, or mobility considerations. These options make it easier to access registered professionals from home or other convenient locations and to continue therapy across changing schedules and life circumstances.
