About Jurgen

Jurgen Schwarz is a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom. He holds a diploma in counselling and additional certifications in online and telephone counselling, and brings direct experience from work with Mind, the NHS, and the Alzheimer’s Society, together with volunteer roles at Cruse Bereavement Support and the Samaritans. This mix of professional and voluntary practice has shaped an approach that balances clinical knowledge with lived understanding of grief, loss and crisis.

As a German living and working in the UK, Jurgen blends a clear, direct manner with warmth and careful listening, offering a different cultural perspective that can help people view long-standing emotional patterns in new ways. He supports adults of all ages with concerns such as grief and loss, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, loneliness, anger, work-related stress and the emotional effects of dementia, and he offers a particular welcome to older adults.

Jurgen focuses on helping people find fresh insight and practical ways of coping rather than promising quick fixes. He aims to work at each person’s pace, helping them explore meaning, values and day-to-day strategies so they can move toward greater self-understanding and a more purposeful life. He offers a calm, accepting space for people navigating difficult transitions and emotional challenges.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, then focus on actions that align with what matters most in life; it can be useful for anxiety, depression and navigating life changes. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises empathic listening and unconditional acceptance, giving people space to explore feelings and build self-understanding at their own pace - this approach can be especially valuable for issues like low self-esteem, loneliness and grief. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) explores the links between thoughts, emotions and behaviours and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns, often helping with anxiety, stress and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jurgen works collaboratively to identify which methods best fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. Together they will experiment with different ways of working and adapt the focus over time to meet changing priorities.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy or geographically dispersed people: sessions can take place by video call or phone, or through live chat and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into daily life. These options increase flexibility and accessibility, allowing clients to engage with a licensed professional in ways that suit their schedule and comfort level.
