About me

Hi and welcome to my website.  My name is Jessica Jeffrey.  My clients usually call me Jess.  I see adult clients (18+) for a wide range of difficulties. 

I can help with anxiety (from low level anxiety to anxiety disorders), depression, or feeling that you don't like yourself and can't see anything good in your life. Lots of clients come and see me because they aren't the person they once were, and are too overwhelmed to know where to start or how to fix it.

I'm a registered member of the BACP and I work within The Grove Therapy: Ilkley's leading practice for Counselling and Psychotherapy professionals, providing high standards of therapy within a warm and welcoming environment.

My approach

Here’s what I do to help.  We sit down together in a relaxed and informal session for an in-depth conversation, with the opportunity for weekly follow-on sessions. Whatever is going on, I can help you feel less overwhelmed and tangled up.  

If you’re not sure where to start or what to say, that’s OK.  I offer a calm and unhurried space to think and explore, without judgement or agenda.  There's no pressure to commit to any set number of sessions and you can just come for one or two if that feels right.

Sometimes clients are curious to understand themselves better.  If it feels helpful, I may encourage a focus on your core beliefs, unconscious thoughts and emotions, or your past.

Or if you’re simply seeking a space to talk, we might not cover any of these. I can be someone to listen with kindness and care, accepting and welcoming every bit of you. 

Fees and location

I see clients at The Grove Counselling and Psychotherapy Practice in Ilkley, West Yorkshire, on Thursdays and Fridays.   

The Practice is located above the clothes shop 'Mint Velvet', next door to 'Bettys' café.  Once inside, there are two flights of stairs up to the therapy rooms.

I also see clients online, via video call on Wednesdays. 

Sessions last 55 mins and cost £55. 

My working hours are:

  • Wednesday 10am to 3pm (online only)
  • Thursday 8.45am to 3pm 
  • Friday 7.30am to 1.45pm 

I offer a free 10-minute video consultation. This can be a chance for you to decide whether I’m the right therapist for you and for me to ensure I’m qualified to work with the issues you’re going through.

Get in touch

I see adult clients for both short-term and long-term therapy.  I welcome diversity and inclusion and I work sensitively and respectfully with a wide variety of beliefs, traditions, genders and identities.

If you have any questions about any aspects of my work, please feel free to ask. I welcome conversation, questions and jargon-free clarity.
