Gillian Jacobson
Integrative Counsellor
& Psychotherapist
Hello and a warm welcome to my website.
"I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become." (Carl Jung)
The path to a happy and fulfilled life starts by finding a therapist you can trust and embark on a healing journey with.
Have you been struggling with something for a while, or finding it difficult to move past a significant event in your life?
Are you feeling in despair and wondering how you will get through it?
Do you feel stuck in old habits but want to move forward?
Integrative psychotherapy can help you get in touch with and process difficult thoughts, uncomfortable feelings and unresolved issues. Counselling can give you the support to guide you through difficult situations, uncertainty and personal struggles.
As a trained professional I will work with you with sensitivity, responding to your needs appropriately, so you can begin to overcome issues that have been causing problems for you and kept you from being happy.
First step in dealing with personal difficulties:
Is to acknowledge that you need help and to reach out. If you have had counselling in the past or are seeking therapy for the first time, you have come to the right place.
Each of us carries our own baggage and personal struggles. So many of us continue to struggle in silence, perhaps due to stigma, shame or fear. However, you do not have to carry on alone anymore.
About me:
I believe that we are all capable of making necessary changes in our lives to create the life we desire. However, we start life vulnerable and without any control over our early formative experiences. We have no choice over the genes we are born with, the families we are raised in, nor the impact this has on our psychological development. In other words, we become a product of our environment and genes, which determine how we relate to others and function in the world.
As an Integrative Psychotherapist I use a variety of therapeutic techniques to help you. I offer a space to help you relax and feel safe where you can explore your emotions and limiting behaviours.
My work adheres to the ethical standards of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, of which I am a registered member.

Services
Online and Face-to-Face Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy - Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Person-Centred Therapy & Attachment Therapy, Gut-Brain Connection and Mindful Nutrition
As an Integrative Psychotherapist I combine the aforementioned techniques to help you gain insight and understanding of a problem(s).
Help is at hand, and here are some of the emotional and psychological problems I can help you with: depression, eating disorders, anxiety, low self esteem, bereavement, loss, rejection, anger, identity issues, existential fears, relationship issues, addictions, problematic drinking, gambling, and other unhelpful coping habits.
Integrative psychotherapy can help you manage and work through these difficulties, and find a way forward.
Incorporating mindful nutrition and looking at the gut-brain connection can be particularly useful in alleviating and getting over mental health difficulties such as depression, anxiety, addictions and eating disorders.
"My counselling experience with Gillian was a transformational journey! Gillian can create a safe, non-judgmental, and harmonious environment where I felt I could share my life, challenges and help me find my solutions. She equipped me with the right tools and techniques to cope with my negative thinking. She is a wonderful listener, extremely respectful and went beyond to accommodate my schedule and circumstances, so I could get the best counselling experience."
