About Holly

Holly Jones is a counsellor registered with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, with six years of practice and more than 2,000 client hours. She uses a compassionate, down-to-earth style to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief and anger. Holly aims to make the first contact simple and respectful for someone who may be anxious about starting therapy.

She has worked in the NHS and for charities that support survivors of childhood abuse and people bereaved by suicide. That experience has shaped how she listens to complex grief, post-traumatic stress and the long-term effects of abuse. Holly also draws on over 20 years of corporate experience when helping people affected by workplace stress and life changes.

Holly blends approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. In sessions she focuses on practical skills, clarifying values and building small, steady changes. Conversations tend to be collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

She helps with a wide range of concerns beyond trauma and grief, including parenting pressures, relationship and intimacy issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD, bipolar and depressive episodes, and anger. She also supports people exploring identity, kink and alternative sexual cultures, body image and caregiving strain.

Holly runs a private practice in the United Kingdom and offers work with international clients. Sessions are organised through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Prospective clients start by using the Start Therapy button and completing a short matching questionnaire.

How Holly’s approaches can work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, anger and getting unstuck during life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand and change those patterns in relationships and intimacy. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and practising clearer ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the process. Holly works collaboratively to find what fits a person’s goals and preferences. Initial conversations explore current problems, what has helped before, and what the client wants to achieve, and then she adapts methods based on that information.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins where helpful, and remove travel time. It can also give people access to a counsellor when local services are limited or when international sessions are needed. Registered or accredited professionals can guide practical arrangements and recommend the best way to start.
