I cannot speak highly enough of Jay Williams as a therapist. From our very first session, Jay has shown an exceptional ability to truly understand me on a deep level. He listens with such attentiveness and empathy that I always feel heard and valued. What sets Jay apart is his unique way of guiding me to question myself—gently but effectively. He has helped me uncover patterns and beliefs that I wasn’t fully aware of, allowing me to see where I can improve and how to actively work on myself. His insights are always on point, and he never fails to offer new perspectives that lead to meaningful change. Jay’s approach is both supportive and challenging in the best possible way. He creates a safe space where I can explore difficult emotions and thoughts, all while encouraging me to grow and evolve. Thanks to him, I’ve made significant progress in understanding myself better and allowing me to work on building healthier relationships with those around me. If you’re looking for a therapist who is genuinely invested in your well-being and capable of guiding you toward real personal growth, I highly recommend Jay Williams.

I am a psychodynamic counsellor and although I can work psychospiritually and as a coach in divorce and grief work, Psychodynamic is my starting point. I work with individuals, couples and groups.
All that Psychodynamic really means is that we will talk and explore your past, present and inner world and see if through discussing your thoughts and feelings, we can get to a place that offer you some insight, perhaps a greater understanding of yourself. This can help with psychological pain and indeed can lead to tranformative and healing conversations.
I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and confidence.

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.
