About

About Jecinta

Jecinta Sivyer is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, and LGBT-related challenges. Sessions are framed around what each person brings to the room and what they want to change.

She works from a person-centred stance that values respect and sensitivity. Conversations are guided by the client’s pace and priorities, with the aim of building clarity and confidence.

Background and approach

Jecinta draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time and on attachment-based thinking to understand how relationships shape feelings. In practical terms she focuses on day-to-day coping skills, improved communication and understanding emotional reactions. Sessions often include talking through recent difficulties, reflecting on past experiences, and trying small changes to see what helps.

The overall aim is meaningful, manageable change rather than quick fixes. Jecinta holds BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has four years of experience working with people from a range of backgrounds and life situations.

Sessions are offered in English, Lao and Swahili. People who live outside the United Kingdom are not currently accepted, so check location details before booking.

Online support

How Jecinta’s approaches shape online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships affect feelings and behaviour; it can help with intimacy issues, attachment worries and patterns that keep repeating. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and experience, offering a steady, non-directive space to be heard and understood. Psychodynamic ideas pay attention to longer-term patterns and how past experiences influence present responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jecinta will work together with each person to decide which ideas and methods feel most useful. That choice can change over time as goals shift and new understanding emerges.

Practical benefits of online work include easier fitting of sessions into a busy day and fewer travel demands. Online sessions can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins or to choose times that suit work and family life. The exact session formats available are not listed here, so confirm which options are offered before booking to make sure they suit your needs.
