About Jeannette
Jeannette Mason is a counsellor who uses a somatic-informed approach to help people notice how their body holds stress and emotion. She blends body-aware methods with talking therapy to support people feeling anxious, low or overwhelmed. Jeannette holds BACP and has four years' experience working with emotional and practical challenges.
Clients often come with worries about anxiety, depression, sleep or stress. She also helps people facing trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, relationship difficulties and work stress.
Background and approach
Additional concerns she addresses include attention differences such as ADHD, body image and chronic illness-related distress. Her background started in general nursing, which informs a practical, grounded way of working. Jeannette uses simple mindfulness practices and solution-focused steps to help people manage day-to-day problems.
She pays attention to how thoughts and physical sensations connect during sessions. Assessment and planning are collaborative. Early sessions look at what matters most and what is realistic to change.
Jeannette aims to tailor short- or longer-term plans so they fit each person's life and goals. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space and works in ways that are warm and interactive. Sessions are practical and paced to suit the individual, with attention to safety and making small, achievable changes over time.
How somatic and relational approaches work online
Jeannette uses somatic-informed therapy to help people notice physical sensations linked to stress and emotion and learn simple ways to ease them. This approach can help with anxiety, sleep problems and stress that shows up in the body.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early and current relationships shape expectations and behaviours. This helps when communication, commitment or trust issues are affecting day-to-day life. Mindfulness techniques are used alongside these approaches to build attention to the present moment and reduce reactivity.
Finding the best fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which approach or combination feels most helpful, based on goals and preferences. That plan can change as work progresses and needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. People can choose shorter or longer formats and fit therapy around work, parenting and other responsibilities. This makes it easier to continue regular work on goals from wherever you are.
