About Jason
Counsellor and member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years of practice experience. Jason Ebanks works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. He speaks English and accepts international clients from the United Kingdom base.
Jason uses a conversational, client-centred way of working. He adapts sessions to what a person brings each week and listens for what matters most. He also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to help spot unhelpful thinking and develop practical coping steps.
His approach includes psychodynamic ideas about how past patterns can affect present feelings. He uses Motivational Interviewing to support change when someone feels stuck. For relationship issues he draws on Imago Relationship Therapy to look at interaction patterns and communication habits.
Jason has worked with people facing loss and grief, and with those recovering from past abuse. He also supports people through common problems such as abandonment fears, attachment issues and changes linked to ageing or caregiving responsibilities.
Sessions are straightforward and focused on what the client wants to achieve. Jason aims to make each session clear, with steps to practise between meetings where helpful. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book their first session.
Therapeutic approaches and how online counselling works
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people who want a conversational, supportive space to sort out feelings and priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and supports practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress. Imago Relationship Therapy examines interaction patterns between partners and offers tools to improve communication and understanding.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and try different ways of working with the client to see what fits best. Decisions are collaborative and based on the client's goals, needs and preferences rather than a fixed method.

Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. Many people find it helpful for maintaining continuity while managing work, caregiving or other commitments.
