Jodie Bament

Jodie Bament is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) who has seven years of professional experience. She offers calm, non-judgemental support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and low self-esteem. Jodie focuses on practical ways to cope and on helping people find steadier footing during life changes.

Her approach is tailored to each person. Conversations are guided by what matters most to the individual and by simple, realistic goals. Jodie takes time to listen and to understand personal history before suggesting ways to move forward.

She uses client-centred methods that put the person's experience at the heart of the work. Mindfulness practices are also part of the toolbox, for people who want to manage overwhelming thoughts and build everyday calm.

Jodie also helps with issues such as relationship communication, feelings of abandonment, grief after separation, and the loneliness that can come with life transitions. She works in plain language and aims to make sessions feel straightforward and useful.

To begin a course of sessions, people complete a short matching questionnaire through the Start Therapy button and then arrange appointments based on the therapist's availability. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How these approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor follows the person's lead, reflects what they say and helps them make sense of their feelings. This approach suits people who want a compassionate space to talk through stress, loneliness or confusion.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity to anxious or overwhelming thoughts. These techniques can help with low mood, worry and the unsettled feelings that follow loss or big changes.

Finding the right therapy style is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss what feels most helpful, try different ways of working and adjust the approach to match the person's needs and goals. That choice happens collaboratively, not imposed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also allow people to attend from quieter surroundings or to choose an option that does not require being on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can explain which format will suit a client's practical needs during the initial scheduling.
