Person-centred counsellor for practical support
About Jason
Jason Thorpe is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people talk through difficult issues. He brings five years of experience and a relaxed, friendly manner to sessions. Jason practises as a BACP professional and works with adults in the United Kingdom and internationally in English.
He focuses on everyday problems like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. He also supports people facing grief, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and those coping with major life changes.
Background and approach
Other areas he works with include sleep and eating concerns, ADHD, anger, career worries and compassion fatigue. Jason gives space for people to explore personal experiences without judgement. He aims to help clients understand what they are feeling and find practical ways to move forward.
He encourages each person to make their own choices about what feels right for them. Sessions are offered in a calm, down-to-earth style that many find easy to approach. Jason describes his role as guiding and listening rather than directing.
He helps clients define simple, realistic steps toward feeling more balanced. People who prefer straightforward conversation and practical options may find this style helpful. Jason is happy to work with those navigating attachment issues, body image, caregiving stress, blended family concerns, and a range of complex topics such as trauma-related dissociation and alternative sex cultures.
He aims to make the process manageable and focused on the client’s goals.

How client-centred work adapts to online therapy
Client-centred therapy focuses on giving the client space to be heard, reflecting their feelings and helping them find their own solutions. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, mirrors what the client says, and asks gentle questions to help people clarify their thoughts and feelings. This approach works well for issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and relationship concerns.The therapist's role is collaborative rather than directive. Together the client and counsellor decide which ways of working suit the person's needs and goals. If a different approach or technique seems helpful, it will be discussed and tried with the client's agreement so the plan fits their preferences.
Online therapy makes these conversations flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a quicker check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing to speaking or need shorter, more frequent contact. These formats help people fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on practical progress.
