Jason Willis
Experienced therapist for relationships and self-esteem
About Jason
Jason Willis brings 35 years of therapy experience to his work in the United Kingdom. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Jason focuses on helping people with relationship and intimacy questions, self-esteem, and coping with major life changes.
He has worked in statutory and voluntary education settings, which shaped his practical approach to talking therapies. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at finding what helps in day-to-day life.
Background and approach
He supports people who are exploring or questioning their sexuality, including LGBT concerns, and addresses issues such as body image and isolation. Jason also helps people manage the emotional effects of chronic illness, caregiving strain, and midlife transitions. He covers attachment and abandonment issues, difficulties with communication and control, and the aftermath of divorce or separation.
He works with themes of guilt, shame, and forgiveness in a calm, steady way. In practical terms, Jason focuses on clear goals and small, achievable steps. Conversations centre on what is happening now, what patterns are getting in the way, and what can change.
He aims to build confidence and motivation through plain speaking and thoughtful listening. People choose him when they want a therapist who combines long experience with a down-to-earth style. He encourages questions and works at a pace that suits the individual.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and he aims to make it easier and more manageable.

Practical therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Jason uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on relationships and personal patterns. One common approach looks at attachment and how early relationship patterns influence current intimacy and trust; this helps with abandonment worries and communication problems. Another approach works on building self-esteem and managing shame by identifying unhelpful thoughts and practising different responses in everyday situations to boost confidence and reduce isolation.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to the client's needs, goals and preferences rather than following a fixed plan. Together they decide which ways of working feel most helpful and make adjustments as therapy progresses.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, giving practical flexibility. Video calls are useful when visual cues and face-to-face conversation matter. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging lets people check in between sessions or use shorter weekly touchpoints without needing to schedule a full call. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other commitments while keeping focus on real-life change.
