About Jessica
Jessica Rigby is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has five years' experience and works mainly with relationship and identity concerns, anxiety and depression, trauma, addictions, and parenting stress.
Jessica trained via a BACP accredited Diploma of Higher Education and completed a BA (Hons) in Person-Centred Counselling. She came to counselling as a mature student and draws on life experience alongside her professional training.
Her practice is influenced by Client-Centred Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions prioritise the person's own experience and goals. Jessica aims to listen without judgement and to help people clarify what they want to change.
She works with a wide range of issues including LGBT matters, intimacy and sexual culture, blended family concerns, grief, chronic health and caregiving stress, ADHD, and attachment difficulties. She also lists body image, communication problems, and dissociation among areas she addresses.
In sessions she keeps the tone inquisitive and practical. She does not prescribe ready-made answers; instead she supports people to name priorities and to try small steps towards different ways of coping. The approach is collaborative and paced to the person's needs.
Jessica practises in the United Kingdom and conducts work in English. Before booking, clients should confirm the current session formats offered and the subscription cost that varies by location.

How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective. The therapist offers active listening, reflection and acceptance so the person can make sense of their feelings and priorities. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, relationship questions and identity concerns.Solution-Focused Therapy looks for practical changes and small experiments. Sessions set clear, achievable goals and track what helps. This can suit people wanting short-term work to improve coping, communication or specific behaviours.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jessica will discuss options and agree a plan with the person based on their needs, goals and preferences. She treats the process as collaborative and may combine elements of both approaches where helpful.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to maintain regular contact while people balance work, family and health demands.
