Jessica Camp, BACP

Jessica Camp is a registered addictions counsellor based in the UK who has worked across residential treatment and supported housing settings. She developed her practice over nine years at a drug and alcohol residential rehabilitation centre where she delivered a person-centred approach aligned with the organisation's self-empowerment ethos. She also serves as the therapeutic lead for a well established supported housing project, working with people who present with complex emotional and physical needs.

Her clinical experience covers a range of presenting issues including anxiety, depression, domestic violence, adverse childhood experiences (ACE), trauma, and dual diagnosis. Much of her counselling work, both within addiction services and in private practice, has focused on forming reparative, secure relationships that create a safer base for therapeutic work. Jessica uses an integrative approach informed by Clarksons systemic psycho-therapeutic model of building relationships, drawing selectively on different models to tailor therapy to the individual.

She is passionate about offering a therapeutic relationship that gives space to explore and process difficult experiences and to develop practical ways of managing the feelings attached to them. Her aim is to help people repair relationship patterns, build resilience, and move forward with greater self-understanding.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Jessica Camp commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and build psychological flexibility - it is often helpful for stress, anxiety, and managing difficult emotions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional responses, making it useful for work on intimacy, abandonment, and relational difficulties. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can support recovery from depression, anxiety, and many day-to-day coping challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jessica works collaboratively with clients to identify the methods that best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques from different models to create a tailored plan rather than applying a single fixed method.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for people juggling work, family, or other commitments. Sessions can take place by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to access registered professionals and therapists from wherever they are and to choose the format that feels most manageable and effective for them.
