About Holly

Holly Jones is a counsellor and a member of the National Counselling Society (NCPS) with six years' experience. She works with people in the United Kingdom on issues such as childhood trauma, grief, surviving sexual abuse, stress and anxiety, and coping with addictions.

She has worked in the NHS for over two years and has provided counselling for a range of concerns including family conflict and trauma. She has also volunteered with a charity supporting adult survivors of child sexual, physical and emotional abuse and PTSD. More recently she has been counselling people bereaved by suicide and supporting those facing complex grief.

Holly draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, Client-Centred methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. In practice this means she uses talking, skills work and reflective exercises to help people manage distress and make practical changes.

Her background includes over 2,000 client hours and previous corporate work of more than 20 years before retraining. She says this experience helps her understand work-related strain, career questions and balancing life demands alongside emotional issues.

She aims to work at the client’s pace and to keep sessions straightforward. People can expect a calm, clear approach that focuses on thoughts, feelings and day-to-day coping. To begin, the directory asks that prospective clients use the online matching steps to arrange a first session.

Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling

Holly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify their values and take small steps towards meaningful change. ACT tends to suit people who want to reduce avoidance and build practical habits.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy which looks at how early relationships shape how we relate now. This approach is often used for issues around trust, intimacy and understanding patterns in relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Holly will talk with each person about goals and preferences and will suggest which methods to try. That choice is made together and can be adjusted as the work continues.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. In general online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote sessions help maintain continuity of care across locations, but ask about formats and timings when you complete the matching steps so arrangements suit your routine.
