About Sheena
Sheena Jones brings six years of therapeutic experience and a National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) credential to her practice in the United Kingdom. Sheena trained at postgraduate level and spent many years working as an occupational therapist in the NHS before moving into counselling. She approaches clients with calm, straightforward support and practical strategies for everyday struggles.
Sheena focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with relationship and family difficulties, self‑esteem, trauma and grief, and issues around intimacy and eating.
Background and approach
Additional areas of focus include anger, career questions, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD and coping with life changes. Her therapeutic style draws on attachment-based work, client-centred listening, mindfulness and solution-focused techniques. Sessions aim to build a trusting relationship and to identify small, manageable steps forward.
Sheena adapts her approach to match each person’s goals and circumstances. Sheena has experience supporting people affected by chronic illness, cancer, intellectual disability, autism and Asperger syndrome. She also works with those coping with post-traumatic stress, panic, mourning after loss, and the fallout from separation or disaster.
Practical problem solving and emotional understanding sit side by side in her work. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Sheena offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging so people can pick the format that fits their life.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to her availability.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online working
Sheena uses attachment-based ideas to help people understand patterns in relationships and how past bonds shape current feelings; this can be useful for worries about connection, trust and repeated relationship patterns. Client‑centred therapy is also central to her practice and focuses on listening, empathy and pacing sessions around the client’s concerns so people can feel heard and understood. Solution-focused techniques are used to identify small, practical steps and short-term goals that move daily life forward.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sheena will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs during early sessions and will adapt methods collaboratively. That way the plan grows from what a person wants to achieve and what feels comfortable for them.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual connection helps the conversation, while phone calls can be lighter on bandwidth and easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support or days when written reflection helps more than speaking. These options give flexibility so people can keep therapy going alongside daily life.
