About Connect Therapy

Connect Therapy offers private counselling sessions for individuals aged 16 and over, based in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, offering in-person, online and telephone sessions across the UK. The practice provides a calm, confidential space for adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, bereavement and life transitions, with specialist support for survivors of domestic and sexual abuse, childhood sexual abuse and complex trauma. I draw on cognitive behavioural, psychodynamic and person-centred approaches, and am qualified to offer EMDR therapy and clinical supervision for fellow practitioners. Sessions are held weekly in a safe, trusting relationship shaped entirely around each person. Connect Therapy is built for anyone seeking a gentle, non-judgemental space to be heard — LGBTQIA+ affirming, kink-aware, neurodivergence-aware and vegan allied. The practice is built and run solely by Jamie, an Accredited Member of the BACP, holding an MA in Integrative Counselling, a PG Cert in Clinical Supervision, an Enhanced DBS check and Safeguarding Level 5 training.

About me

Hello, I'm Jamie.

My journey to becoming a counsellor has been a long and winding one, including years working in education, charities and social enterprises. I specialise in working with domestic and sexual abuse, childhood sexual abuse and complex trauma — though I'm qualified to support a wide range of concerns, including self-harm, neurodivergence, disordered eating, addiction, anxiety and depression.

I employ an integrative approach, drawing from cognitive behavioural, psychodynamic and person-centred therapy, with a firm belief in building a safe, trusting relationship at the core. I also offer EMDR and clinical supervision for fellow practitioners.
