Alice Jackson is a counsellor who helps people when life feels overwhelming. She has four years' experience and works from a psychodynamic perspective to understand the roots of difficult feelings and patterns. She aims to offer a calm, accepting space where difficult emotions can be spoken about.
Sessions often focus on what lies beneath symptoms such as anxiety, low mood or trouble sleeping. This gives people a chance to make sense of repeated patterns that cause pain.
Background and approach
Alice pays attention to how identity and background shape experience. She makes space for difference in race, ethnicity, sexuality, faith, class and gender when that matters to a person’s story. That awareness is woven into conversations about relationships, self-worth and intimacy.
Work can be short term to address a specific problem or longer term for deeper exploration. People might come for stress, grief, addiction-related concerns, or career and parenting strains. Sessions also cover issues such as body image, attachment difficulties, chronic illness and caring responsibilities.
Alice uses a reflective style that helps people notice feelings and repeated patterns. Over time that awareness supports new choices and greater emotional clarity. She welcomes enquiries from adults in the United Kingdom who would like to begin counselling.
Psychodynamic therapy online and how it helps
Psychodynamic work looks at how past experiences shape present feelings and relationships. It helps when people want to understand repeated patterns, painful memories or emotional reactions that recur in daily life.Sessions that use psychodynamic ideas often focus on the stories people bring and the feelings those stories provoke. The counsellor listens for themes and patterns, gently helping the person make links between past events and current struggles such as anxiety, low mood or difficulty with intimacy.
Finding the right way of working is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and will adjust the approach as therapy progresses. This collaborative style helps make sure the work feels relevant and manageable for each person.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video lets people talk face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check‑in is needed. Live chat or messaging suits shorter reflections and steady support between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and health demands.
