Jodie Bament

Jodie Bament is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with seven years of professional experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Jodie aims to offer a respectful and compassionate space for people who want change.

She focuses on tailoring conversations and practical plans to each person. That means listening to what matters to the client and building simple steps for day-to-day life. She works with issues like coping with life changes, feeling isolated, relationship communication problems and struggles with self-worth.

Jodie often draws on client-centred ways of working. This means the person sets the pace and the topics, and the counsellor follows to help make sense of feelings. She also brings mindfulness techniques into sessions to help with stress, anxiety and moments of overwhelm.

Sessions aim to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. Jodie supports exploring feelings around abandonment, guilt, forgiveness and emptiness, as well as practical concerns like money and life purpose. She encourages small, manageable steps towards clearer thinking and steadier mood.

People who value a listening, non-judgemental approach may find her style helpful. Jodie describes the work as collaborative and practical, with an emphasis on respect, sensitivity and empowerment.

Approaches that suit online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. The counsellor reflects what is said, helps make sense of feelings and supports people to set their own goals. This approach can help with low self-esteem, relationship communication and decisions about change.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing practices. These techniques can reduce moments of overwhelm and help with stress, anxiety and rumination. Mindfulness often works well alongside conversation-based support.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, and together they will try methods that fit the client. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as the work progresses.

Please confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when useful, and reduce travel time. Talk with the counsellor about what will best fit routines, technical comfort and the kind of support wanted.
