The first steps into counselling, maybe to seek clarity, awareness or peace, take courage and can be daunting. I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor based in Wokingham. Using an integrative approach, we will work together in a warm, sensitive and respectful way that will be the best fit for you and the outcome you desire.
I have worked with a wide range of client concerns including anxiety and depression, relationship issues and conflicts, career challenges and life changes. I also work with clients who are seeking to recover from historical and recent trauma, abuse and neglect.
I look forward to supporting you to discover and take any steps toward any changes you feel may be beneficial for your future happiness.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Overall rating:
My therapist is excellent.
Jean-Marie is a kind and compassionate listener and I feel safe in being able to talk to her about anything I need to. She encourages and reassures me, and understands my needs and aims.
Made a connection quickly as it was clear that Jean wanted to help me understand myself better and that helping guide me to that goal is her purpose
Great.
Jean was amazing, she listened to what I was saying and picked up on tiny details in what I was saying that I didn’t even notice myself. She was patient and really challenged me to think more about my actions and improve them.
Jean has been a great help to me over these past few months. She has helped me navigate the challenges of my relationship and restored my confidence in myself. Her warm and gentle nature makes her a pleasure to work with and makes it easy for me to confide in her. I could easily recommend Jean to anyone.
I have been working with Jean for a few weeks as she has supported me through a crisis situation. I feel that we have been well matched, she has gently encouraged me to look below the presenting issue and address some of the patterning. Lots to do but happy to be working through this with someone I feel is knowledgeable and truly compassionate.
