As a compassionate and nurturing male with experience working with Mind, the NHS and the Alzheimer's Society, a leading dementia charity as well as volunteering with the Samaritans and Cruse Bereavement Support in the UK, I offer a special therapeutic relationship for those undergoing unwanted and distressing changes in their lives.
I am a qualified therapist, practising in the UK and have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, anger management, & career difficulties. I will not claim to erase life problems, but I can help you to cope positively with them through developing new insights, enabling you to live with purpose.
Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. If your goal is to live a more satisfying and fulfilling life, largely free from negative feelings, I can assist you. My clients are adults, men and women (I particularly welcome older adults) who realise they need support in dealing with a broad range of life challenges.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Jurgen is extremely patient and a great listener. Would highly recommend!
Jurgen listens carefully to what I have to say and responds with intelligent, thought-provoking questions that help me to reframe my life challenges in different ways. I really appreciate that he avoids clichés and oversimplifications of complex issues (something which I have found problematic in other experiences with therapy). He is knowledgable about different kinds of theraputic approaches and adjusts the approach according to the type of issues that I raise in a given session. He responds quickly and professionally to messages outside of sessions and demonstrates high ethical standards. Jurgen is kind and easy to talk to and I genuinely look forward to my sessions with him.
Jurgen is a great listener, offers me a safe space to talk and is very supportive
