Robert Jarvis, NCPS

Robert Jarvis, NCPS, is a licensed counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience, much of which has been gained working in the charity sector. He trained initially as an integrative counsellor and has since shaped his practice around third-wave cognitive behavioral approaches, particularly Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Robert supports people dealing with anger and frustration, stress, anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and the everyday problems that form part of the human condition. He also works with issues such as self-esteem, coping with life changes, attachment concerns, and a range of mood and personality-related difficulties.

Known for an approach grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion, he aims to tailor therapy to each person’s unique needs and goals. Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Robert does not currently accept international clients and practices as a registered professional under the NCPS credential.

Integrative approaches for online therapy and support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and to commit to actions that reflect their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, low mood, and problems that come from struggling with unwanted emotions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and developing practical skills to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep difficulties where structured techniques can provide relief.

Existential Therapy explores questions about meaning, identity, and life purpose, helping people navigate midlife challenges, grief, isolation, and major life transitions. It supports reflection on values and how to live more intentionally.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Robert works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts the work over time as those needs evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video or phone, live chat, and text-based messaging allow people to fit therapy into busy lives, access support from home, and maintain continuity when schedules or circumstances change. Registered professionals can use these formats effectively to deliver evidence-informed support in a way that meets the client where they are.
