I am an MNCPS accredited counsellor working from the beautiful, Dartington Estate in South Devon. I am also a member of the BACP, hold an enhanced DBS & Level 3 certificate in Safeguarding.
Counselling increases our self awareness. Whether you are feeling stuck, have an important decision to make or are looking to work through a specific experience, finding the right person to talk to is a great first step.
Spending time in a safe, confidential and non judgemental space, can help you to look at things in a different light.
The therapeutic relationship we create should hold us in such a way that enables curiosity and discovery. This is why it’s so important to find the right counsellor.
Your counselling journey is as individual as you are.
Some clients find they only need a few sessions whereas others find long term support beneficial. We can review our work together at an agreed time to make sure that you are getting what you need from the sessions and to ensure we are going at a pace that suits you.
I understand what it feels like to be anxious and to feel out of place in the world and I can truly empathise when clients express feelings of anxiety, loneliness, fear, or uncertainty.
My training was integrative, although I primarily use a person centred approach, especially when we start our sessions together. As our work evolves, we can bring in CBT techniques or Gestalt therapy which focuses on the here and now, bringing new awareness to whatever current issues you are facing.
I also have a personal interest in neurodiversity, which partly came about through my own family’s journey to diagnosis and also through working with young people.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jaime Van Weede. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I have tried counselling previously and wasn’t happy however Jamie really listens but also talks to me and helps me make plans to more forward
