Jodi Pilcher Gordon, BACP

Jodi Pilcher Gordon is a BACP counsellor who helps adults who feel anxious, stuck or overwhelmed. She offers a calm, attentive presence and aims to help people find clearer direction when life feels out of balance. Her work often focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions.

Jodi sees each person as an individual with their own history and needs. She uses a person-centred approach that prioritises listening and reflection. That style is paired with techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to support thinking and behaviour changes.

She also draws on existential ideas about life purpose and meaning when people face big transitions. In sessions Jodi may introduce body-based or somatic activities and creative exercises to help ground difficult feelings. This can be useful when anxiety or stress feels stuck in the body.

Common issues she helps with include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and workplace worries, and coping with life changes such as separation or midlife reassessment. She is LGBTQ+ affirmative and supports people dealing with identity and relationship questions.

Sessions combine listening, reflection and practical tools. Jodi will help someone notice patterns, try out new ways of responding, and check what feels helpful. Her aim is to make therapy understandable and relevant to everyday life.

How Jodi’s approaches work for online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress and when someone feels stuck about life direction. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being genuinely heard. The therapist offers empathy and non‑judgemental support so the person can find their own solutions and sense of agency.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jodi will collaborate with each person to see what fits their needs, goals and preferences. That might mean starting with listening and reflection, then adding ACT or CBT techniques, somatic grounding or meaning-focused conversations as appropriate.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, study or family life. It can also allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time and let someone use video, audio or another supported option that suits them. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and grounding techniques so they work across a distance, and the therapist will discuss what is practical and helpful for each person.
