“I now see myself and the world around me in a completely different light. I feel empowered and encouraged to step into who I was made to be.”
JEAN SKIPPER
Online consultations
Hi, I’m Jean Skipper,
It takes courage to seek support, and I’m glad you're on this website.
I offer a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. Together, we’ll work towards greater self-understanding and discover practical ways to navigate the challenges you may be facing. I aim to help you build resilience, gain clarity, and feel more equipped to move forward in life.
My integrative approach combines person-centred, cognitive behavioural therapy, psychodynamic, solution-focused brief therapy, and some creative techniques, allowing us to tailor our work to your unique needs.
At the heart of my practice is trust, empathy, and respect. I view therapy as a collaborative journey — I’ll walk alongside you, offering perspective and guidance while supporting you to uncover your own inner resources and strengths.
Training and Experience
I hold a Level 5 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and am a registered member of the Association of Christians in Counselling.
Alongside my counselling training, I draw on 25 years of Pastoral experience, where I’ve had the privilege of walking with people through many of life’s challenges.
“Jean was the most phenomenal counsellor and created such a wonderfully safe space to process the areas that I wanted to work on. She continually met me with such kindness, empathy and wisdom. The insight she gave me and the tools I learned through her will stay with me and have completely changed my outlook on life. I am so incredibly grateful for this experience.”
“I am a slow processor, so I think that sometimes I struggle to articulate how I feel. Jean was very patient with me and was very good at drawing out what was going on deep inside me.”
“I am more confident and a little less hard on myself.”
