About Jason
Jason Willis is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 35 years of experience. He works with concerns such as LGBT matters, relationships, intimacy, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients from the United Kingdom base he lists.
His background includes long experience in statutory and voluntary education settings. That work gave him many opportunities to work with different kinds of problems and life stages. He has also worked with issues linked to attachment and abandonment, and with people facing midlife change.
In practice he focuses on everyday problems that affect relationships and self-worth. He helps people talk through intimacy and sexual concerns, communication problems and feelings of isolation or shame. He also works with physical illness and chronic pain where these affect wellbeing and relationships.
He aims to be straightforward in sessions. Conversations explore what is happening now, what has led to it, and practical ways to make small changes. He can help people think about boundaries, communication and managing impulses or guilt.
Sessions use a mix of evidence-based techniques tailored to the person in front of him. He draws on approaches suited to relationship and sexual matters as well as general counselling methods. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session.
Therapeutic approaches and how online counselling works
Jason uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that suit relationship and intimacy concerns. One common approach focuses on improving communication and interaction patterns between people, helping to spot unhelpful cycles and try small changes to how people talk and respond. Another approach looks at how past attachments and early experiences affect current feelings and behaviour, helping someone understand why they may react strongly or feel abandoned.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. He will discuss options with the client, consider what feels most relevant and adapt methods as the work unfolds. That decision is made together and can change as goals and needs become clearer.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or caring commitments, reduce travel time and allow quick check-ins when life is busy. Some formats need less bandwidth or no camera, which can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on video. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, commonly offer these flexible ways of meeting to help fit therapy into everyday life.
