Welcome to Jodie James Counselling Services, where I am dedicated to helping you navigate the challenges of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). As an experienced therapist in Manchester, I understand that each individual's experience with BPD is unique. That's why I tailor my therapeutic approach to suit your specific needs.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch and take the first step towards a happier, more fulfilled life. I look forward to working with you.
My Therapeutic Approach
I believe in the power of a personalised, client-centred approach to therapy. I understand that each individual's journey is unique, and I am committed to providing a tailored experience that respects your autonomy and expertise in your own life.
My therapeutic framework includes a Client-Centred Approach: I believe that you are the expert on your own life and experiences. My client-centred approach empowers you to take control of your healing process by providing guidance, support, and understanding. I blend this with Transactional Analysis (TA) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques to help you identify and change unhelpful patterns in your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that may be contributing to your BPD related symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about BPD
How long does BPD therapy typically last?
The duration of BPD therapy varies depending on each individual's unique circumstances, progress, and therapeutic goals. While some people may benefit from short-term therapy, others may require more extended support. As your therapist, I will work closely with you to assess your needs and adjust the therapy duration accordingly, ensuring you receive the most appropriate care.
How can you help me with my BPD?
As an experienced therapist in BPD, I am committed to providing compassionate, personalised care to support your journey. By utilising a range of evidence-based therapeutic frameworks and tailoring the approach to your specific needs, I aim to help you better understand your condition and build resilience for lasting well-being.
Can BPD therapy be provided online or over the phone?
Yes, I offer various modes of interaction to accommodate your needs and preferences. In addition to face-to-face sessions, I provide therapy via Zoom/Video call, telephone, and walking therapy. This flexibility allows you to access the support you need in a manner that is most comfortable and convenient for you.
What if I am not comfortable discussing my experiences related to BPD?
Your comfort and safety are of utmost importance to me. As your therapist, I will never pressure you to disclose information that you are not ready to share. The therapeutic process is a collaborative effort, and we will work at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
