About Jecinta
Jecinta Sivyer works with people who are feeling stressed, anxious, depressed or exhausted. She also supports those dealing with relationship difficulties, grief, addiction, sleep and eating problems, and struggles with self-esteem or intimacy. People who face trauma, parenting pressures, ADHD, or compassion fatigue can bring those concerns to sessions too. Jecinta is a BACP counsellor and draws on four years of practice in the United Kingdom.
Her approach is straightforward and people-focused. Sessions centre on listening and understanding what matters to the client. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape present feelings, and client-centred ways to keep the pace and direction led by the individual.
Jecinta also uses psychodynamic thinking to notice patterns that repeat over time. Those patterns can help explain why certain problems feel hard to shift, and talking about them can make space for new choices. She explains things plainly and avoids jargon so clients can apply what they learn outside sessions.
Sessions are practical and conversational. Jecinta helps clients set small, manageable goals and practises ways to change reactions and routines. She pays attention to physical problems like chronic pain or sleep disruption alongside emotional issues.
She speaks English, Lao and Swahili, and works with people in the UK. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based approaches focus on how early relationships shape current feelings and connections. Online work lets the therapist and client talk about those relational patterns and practice new ways of relating within regular sessions. Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the process, with the counsellor following their pace and priorities; this helps when the client wants a gentle, self-directed pace. Psychodynamic therapy looks for repeating patterns and unconscious influences; over time online conversations can reveal these patterns and create space for change.Choosing the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will discuss which methods seem to fit the person’s situation and try different ways of working if needed. Goals, preferences and practical needs guide decisions so the work feels collaborative rather than imposed.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work, childcare or travel, and avoiding time spent commuting. Online sessions can make it easier to keep continuity when schedules are busy, and they allow people to meet from different parts of the UK. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be held.
