About Jecinta
Jecinta Sivyer is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She works with common struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with relationship difficulties, grief, trauma and identity questions including LGBT concerns.
Jecinta uses straightforward conversation to help people notice patterns that cause distress. Sessions focus on what is happening now and how past relationships shape current feelings. She pays attention to attachment, how people connect, and recurring relationship dynamics.
Her style draws on client-centred ideas that place the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. That means listening closely and responding to what matters most to the person in front of her. Psychodynamic perspectives are used to look at longer term patterns and where they may have begun.
Practical issues like sleep, eating, starting or changing a career, and coping with life transitions are part of the work. She also addresses more specific concerns such as addiction, ADHD, chronic illness and body image in conversation where they arise.
Jecinta offers therapy in English, Lao and Swahili. She works with adults and is based in the UK. If someone is thinking about starting, they are usually asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session.
How her approaches guide online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early connections influence feelings and behaviour now. It helps with relationship patterns, intimacy issues and feeling disconnected from others by exploring how people relate to those close to them.Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own experience. The therapist listens carefully and reflects back what matters to the client, which can help when someone is sorting through identity, self-esteem or decision making.
Psychodynamic therapy examines longer term patterns and hidden emotional themes. It can be useful for understanding repeating problems like anger, abandonment fears or family of origin issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit best based on the client’s concerns, goals and preferences. That choice may change as work progresses and sessions will adjust to what is most helpful.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around study, work or caring responsibilities, reduce travel time and offer quicker access to a scheduled check-in. Some formats also suit quieter check-ins, require less bandwidth, or remove the need to be on camera depending on what the therapist and client agree.
