About Jeannette

Jeannette Mason helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression and relationship difficulties using approaches that make sense to them. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years' experience in counselling and psychotherapy.

She works in a conversational, interactive way and draws on several therapeutic approaches. Jeannette trained in Transactional Analysis at postgraduate level and practises integrative psychotherapy. She uses this background to look at how past experiences and current patterns affect feelings and behaviour.

Her practice also draws on Attachment-Based, Mindfulness, Somatic and Trauma-Focused ideas. These approaches are used to notice patterns in relationships, reduce overwhelming sensations in the body, and develop practical coping steps for day-to-day life.

Jeannette has a background in general nursing and applies that experience when working with people who have chronic illness or ongoing health concerns alongside mental distress. She is interested in ADHD and supporting people who suspect they may have attention differences.

The first session is an opportunity to agree goals and see if the working style fits. She offers both short-term focused work and longer-term therapy, and she forms treatment plans together with the client based on progress and preference.

Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches used in online counselling and what they do

Jeannette commonly uses Attachment-Based and Mindfulness approaches and also draws on Solution-Focused ideas. Attachment-Based work looks at patterns of relating and how early relationships shape expectations and responses in adult relationships; it can help with anxiety about closeness and trust. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce stress and reactivity and can help with anxiety, sleep and mood. Solution-Focused techniques concentrate on practical steps and small changes that make day-to-day life easier and help move towards specific goals.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will discuss symptoms, goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. This is a collaborative process and may adjust over time as progress is reviewed.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family commitments, reduce travel time and allow meetings from different locations. They also mean shorter check-ins can be arranged when needed, and help people continue work when managing chronic illness or fluctuating energy. Registered professionals and therapists can discuss practical arrangements when you first make contact.
