Jean Briscoe , BACP

Jean Briscoe is a licensed clinical therapist and counsellor practitioner based in the United Kingdom, and a registered member of the British Association for Counsellors & Psychotherapists (MBACP). With more than 20 years of experience working across the National Health Service, private practice and employee assistance programmes, she has developed specialist expertise in trauma work, including support for people who have experienced limb amputation, and therapeutic care for those affected by Multiple Sclerosis.

Her practice also includes assessment and support for neurodivergence, including ADHD and autism, and a wide-ranging focus on disability, body image concerns, chronic health conditions, LGBTQ+ issues, domestic violence and general mental health and wellbeing. Jean combines clinical knowledge with practical experience to address presenting problems such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and family difficulties, eating and body image concerns, parenting challenges, career issues and coping with life changes.

Her professional approach draws on person-centred principles, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and solution-focused techniques to tailor interventions to each individual. She aims to provide an honest, non-judgemental and respectful therapeutic space, working flexibly and at the client’s pace to explore underlying psychological issues and support positive change. Jean encourages anyone ready to take a step toward wellbeing to make contact and discuss how she might help.

Attachment, CBT and Person-Centred Support Online

Jean Briscoe uses a blend of well-established approaches to tailor online therapy to each person’s needs. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating an empathetic, non-judgemental space where the client’s own goals guide the work - it helps with self-esteem, relationship difficulties and making personal changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can be especially useful for anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in close relationships and early bonds to help with trust, intimacy and long-standing relational issues.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jean works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit best with their needs, goals and preferences. Over time she adapts techniques so the work remains relevant and effective for each individual.

Online therapy with Jean is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different lifestyles and schedules. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from different locations and select the format that feels most comfortable for the client, while working with licensed professionals and therapists to progress toward agreed goals.
