Jean Briscoe , BACP

Jean Briscoe is a London-based clinical therapist with 20 years of experience working across the National Health Service (NHS), private practice, and employee assistance programs. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which reflects her professional standing within the UK counselling community. Jean brings extensive experience in trauma work, including specialist support for people who have experienced limb amputation, and has worked with clients affected by Multiple Sclerosis and other chronic health conditions.

She also provides neurodivergent assessment for ADHD and autism and offers therapeutic support for a wide range of concerns such as disability-related challenges, body image, chronic illness, grief, domestic violence, and LGBT issues. Her practice includes work with mood and anxiety disorders, relationship and family difficulties, parenting and intimacy concerns, eating and bipolar conditions, and coping with life changes and career challenges.

Jean’s approach is grounded in person-centred care, cognitive behavioural techniques, and solution-focused methods, tailoring interventions to each individual’s needs. She aims to engage clients with honesty, respect, and a non-judgemental stance, supporting them to explore underlying issues at their own pace and to make meaningful, positive change. Jean welcomes clients seeking collaborative, empathetic therapeutic support and is accepting of international clients.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Jean Briscoe draws on person-centred therapy to create a respectful, client-led environment where the person's own goals and values guide the work. This approach focuses on empathy, active listening, and supporting clients to find their own solutions, which can be helpful for relationship issues, self-esteem, and general life transitions.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns and to build practical coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Attachment-based therapy is offered for clients who want to explore relational patterns, early attachment experiences, and how these affect current relationships and emotional responses.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Jean will work collaboratively with each person to determine the best fit based on needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy with Jean is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, varied time zones, and differing communication needs. These options make it easier for people managing health conditions, caregiving roles, or mobility limitations to access ongoing support from a licensed professional.
