Jayati De Cruz, NCPS

Jayati De Cruz offers short, straightforward support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression and LGBTQIA+ related concerns. Jayati aims to make first steps easier by listening without judgement and helping clients find practical ways forward. Sessions are framed around the person in front of them, not around labels or assumptions.

Jayati uses client-centred principles to keep conversations focused on the client's priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small behaviour changes. Mindfulness techniques are introduced to build calm and to manage overwhelming feelings.

With four years of practice in the United Kingdom, Jayati works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, and major life transitions. They also support concerns such as self-esteem, body image, relationship and intimacy issues, and career strain. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment, codependency, dissociation, and gender dysphoria.

Sessions are intended to be collaborative and practical. Jayati helps people set clear, achievable goals and checks progress along the way. The tone is direct but compassionate, with an emphasis on small steps that fit into everyday life.

People who want to start are asked to complete a short questionnaire before scheduling. Jayati uses their NCPS credential as part of their professional details while working in the UK.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-centred therapy puts the person's experience at the centre of sessions and relies on open listening and reflection to help people find their own solutions. It can be useful for anyone wanting support to clarify values, make decisions, or feel heard.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and tests simple changes to see what helps. It is often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related difficulties.

Mindfulness therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and manage overwhelming emotions. It can be helpful alongside other approaches for building calm and focus.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals and try methods that suit their needs and preferences, adapting as progress is observed.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm the available session types before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins when life gets busy. Some formats work better for shorter practical check-ins while others suit longer reflective sessions, so discussing what fits a person's routine helps plan effective care.
