About Jyotsana

Jyotsana Gilmore helps people with stress, anxiety, relationships, self‑esteem and depression using talking-based counselling. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred methods and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people manage feelings and make practical changes. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and is listed with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She has 11 years of experience working in India and the United Kingdom.

In sessions she encourages clear, direct conversation about what is causing distress. She offers ways to identify unhelpful thoughts and to practise small, manageable changes between meetings. Practical strategies can include noticing patterns, trying different behaviours and using short skills for managing intense emotions.

Her work also covers relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, trauma and abuse, and addiction-related concerns. She supports people with parenting strain, blended family difficulties and communication problems. Additional areas addressed include body image, commitment and codependency concerns, and coping after separation.

The approach is collaborative and paced to each person. Jyotsana draws on elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Motivational Interviewing when useful to focus on emotion regulation and motivation to change. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on what matters to the person in front of her.

Clients can expect a mix of talking, practical exercises and reflection. She works in English and accepts international clients. To start, people follow the site sign-up and matching steps to arrange an initial appointment.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that fit their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Client‑Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says so they feel understood and can make their own decisions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviour link together and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences in early meetings and together decide which methods to use. That conversation helps shape each session and can change as needs evolve.

Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work and family life, and can allow shorter check‑ins when needed. They also reduce travel time and can suit people who prefer not to be on camera at every meeting. Registered or accredited professionals can use different approaches flexibly in remote sessions to focus on skills practice, behavioural experiments and talking-based reflection.
