About Jason

Jason O'Flynn works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, addictions and a range of other concerns. He uses a client-centred approach and has four years' experience. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Jason prefers short, direct sessions that focus on what is happening now and what feels important to the person in the room. He listens and reflects, helping people clarify what matters and consider practical steps they might take. The client-centred method means the pace and focus are guided by the person attending rather than a fixed programme.

His work covers many everyday difficulties such as low mood, sleep problems, eating concerns, anger and career stress. He also supports people with complex presentations including attachment and dissociation issues, ADHD, codependency, and sexual expression topics such as BDSM and kink culture. He includes matters related to ageing, caregiver stress and the effects of disasters where relevant.

Jason draws on ideas from compassion-focused approaches, mindfulness and cognitive-based techniques when they fit the person’s needs. He uses these alongside client-centred work to explore thoughts, feelings and patterns in a practical way. Sessions look at coping strategies, interpersonal patterns and small changes that can help daily life.

He offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions are provided via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How his client-centred approach works for online counselling

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s experience in the moment and on building an honest, listening relationship. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what the person says, follows their lead and helps them clarify feelings and choices. This approach is useful for issues such as anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and grief.

He also draws on mindfulness techniques to help with stress and sleep problems, and on cognitive-based ideas to look at unhelpful thought patterns. Mindfulness offers simple exercises to reduce rumination, and cognitive-based ideas help spot and test thoughts that worsen mood or anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and practical constraints and will agree a way forward with the client. This is a collaborative process and may combine client-centred listening with selected mindfulness or cognitive tools.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can help fit counselling into a busy life, avoid travel time and make it easier to arrange appointments around work or care commitments. They can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions when that suits the client better.
