About Jean-Marie

Jean-Marie Lawrence is a psychotherapeutic counsellor who focuses on helping people take the first steps when life feels heavy. She writes plainly and offers calm, steady support for those facing anxiety, stress, low mood or difficult life changes. Her approach suits people who want a warm, respectful space to think things through and try different ways forward.

She uses an integrative mix of approaches tailored to each person. Sessions can include elements of hypnotherapy alongside talking therapies that focus on connections, patterns and practical steps.

Background and approach

Jean-Marie aims for simple, practical ways to manage symptoms and rebuild confidence over time. Her practice includes work with trauma and abuse, grief, addictions and relationship strain. She also supports people coping with eating concerns, low self-esteem and compassion fatigue.

Sessions are offered to clients in the United Kingdom and to people internationally in English. Jean-Marie has five years' experience and lists NCPS as a credential. She describes therapy as a collaborative process and helps people set small, achievable goals to test new strategies between sessions.

The emphasis is on steady progress rather than quick fixes. People who prefer a gentle, listening approach will find her style approachable. She combines practical tools with narrative and attachment-based ideas to help people understand patterns and make clearer choices.

That combination is intended to support lasting change.

Online support

Approaches you might meet online

Jean-Marie uses a small number of complementary methods so sessions stay focused and practical. Hypnotherapy is offered as a way to access focused relaxation and suggestive work that can help with habits, anxiety and confidence. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current expectations and emotional reactions, helping people notice repeating patterns and choose different responses.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person and their concerns at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps people find their own solutions rather than supplying answers. Together they will try different approaches and decide what helps most, adjusting methods to match the client’s goals and preferences.

Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people read visual cues and work more closely with narrative and hypnotherapy techniques. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can suit shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging allow ongoing reflection between scheduled meetings and can be useful for brief updates or when writing feels easier.
