More about Jeff
- 7 years' experience
- Male
- NCPS
I am an anxiety, anger, and confidence therapist licensed in Cornwall, UK with many years of experience working as a counsellor, hypnotherapist and confidence coach. Although these are my main areas of focus... I have experience with other issues also so please feel free to reach out for more information... in particular I can support you if you have depression.
My therapy style is centred around you. I am a great listener and I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. You would expect that of a counsellor wouldn’t you?
My approach combines client centred therapy - where you lead the way as expert in your life - with some solution focused CBT and NLP all of which is ‘humanistic’… all of which means I have a strong belief in your inner resources to change for the better.
My job is to help you release those resources for yourself and continue to grow after you leave my nurturing environment. My mission is your empowerment.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

He is a good listener and suggested relevant and good strategies for me
Very satisfied and this has helped me tremendously
It's early days, I was feeling reluctant to try this kind of therapy, but I'm pleased I did, and very pleased that I was matched with Jeff Hutchens. I find that speaking to a professional gives me confidence, he listens without interrupting I feel comfortable sharing my inner anxieties. I feel I made the right choice. I do feel more at ease. With that I am thankful.
I’ve been on this journey with Jeff for 1.5 years. He has helped me go through tough times and realize my true personal goals to move forward and live the life that I actually want. I am grateful for Jeff and totally recommend him to anyone.
Jeff is mainly doing childhood work with me, which is extremely valuable to me. He is also mixing in a bit of grief consulting, and though it is not the focus, his grief consulting helped me more than many other conversations about death and my grief, even with therapists. Thus I can highly recommend Jeff.
Great overall experience, great listener and gives great advice
i couldn't ask for a better therapist!
Jeff Hutchens helped me a lot, he gave me a feeling that I'm not alone and gave me great ways to cope with anxiety and fear. He's a great listener and an open minded therapist. I recommend him highly.
Jeff Hutchens gives me space to explore my feelings about various aspects of my life, offering helpful but not overbearing advice. He has helped me identify some patterns that aren't helpful. I appreciate his help and his attitude.
Jeff has been an essential part of my development and growth as a person and professional. He has helped me navigate through difficult parts of my life and provided me with the much needed support, guidance and words of encouragement, when the world felt very dark. I am forever thankful to have been matched with such a kind and considerate individual.
Been having sessions for a few months and got some very good advice and tools to deal with stress and anxiety
Jeff is the best therapist I’ve found after trying out so many different options
Jeff has been nice, friendly, to the point and really helpful in exploring my issues and navigating the road to improvement.
Jeff is very understanding and compassionate towards both complex situations and everyday annoyances. His knowledge and experience helps bring easy to follow solutions, leaving all avenues explored. Overall Jeff is really cool, and easy to talk to helping you understand yourself better.
He is great.
Jeff had been a great support in working through a number of issues I had been struggling to make progress on alone (anger, stress, boundaries with step-son, frustration with elder-care, and staying aligned as a couple). Jeff is a great listener, and he helped me put mechanisms in place to let off steam, see myself more clearly and be healthier in my reactions to hot buttons. Much appreciated, highly recommended.
Jeff is an amazing listener and really seems to pick out the important stuff that I wouldn’t have even realised myself and always seems to know what to say and how to help. I look forward to continuing with him.
I have really benefited from only two sessions so far. Jeff is very calm & thoughtful with helpful suggestions. It's my first therapy & I would thoroughly recommend the experience.
Jeff helps me to better grasp different concepts and supports with practical exercises I can work on.
I found Jeff to be a kind and considerate person.
Jeff is a professional and was greatly helpful. Thanks Jeff
Jeff is a therapist with a great understanding of people and helps to identify and better address one's hidden thought processes. His humorous yet serious approach quickly makes the sessions like a conversation with a long-time friend.
Jeff is a very attentive listener with good advice and techniques to share. I've been able to take away learnings to act upon and help me understand the process I'm going through. Can only recommend taking the opportunity to work with him.
Jeff is compassionate, thoughtful and clearly very experienced. He uses a combination of theory, experience and practical examples to explore and support and his sessions run at just the right speed that you are left with enough food for thought and applications to take and explore for the time afterwards without feeling overwhelmed. Its only been a very short time that we have been talking, so I am sure there is still much more to discuss and explore and unpack... but so far it has been a great and rewarding experience.
My mental health has greatly improved since beginning therapy with Jeff.
Jeff is a great listener and he truly spark change from within. Saw him for 2 months and I feel and see amazing improvements. Jeff is the friend you’ll never have!
This man helps me to go through my daily struggles. Its a very special and unique time for me in my life right now and he helps me a lot. I am very thankful !
Jeff has been great to support me to work through anxiety and anger. I have seen many therapists in the past and finally found someone I feel comfortable talking to who has helped me make progress in a short period of time.
Jeff picked me up from a place where nothing made me happy, not even the usual pleasures or fun activities, and guided me back to my usual solid joyful self. I became a better friend to my friends and a happier better version of myself in about only half a year. He shares insights and psychological tools how to handle life situations, he listens and laughs with you.
Jeff helped me go through some tough times caused by anxiety. He helped me understand where that anxiety was coming from. He also helped with good advice and coaching related to my career, professional life, my relationships, etc. Basically he is a good listener and tries to understand how his advice can be of help. I highly recommend him!
I’m very comfortable and like your approach to my issues
He is a great therapist!
Jeff is a very caring and calm person. He has excellent hypnotherapy skills
I can’t even begin to explain how much this man has helped me turn my life around. I really was down and almost out when we began working together and now I see totally new person looking back in the mirror, a person at peace. So many lessons learned and revelations made, it’s hard to put a finger on the most important. However for me, the most valuable aspect of our time together has been the regular communication and non-judgemental approve Jeff has taken towards me. Before going down the therapy road, I was skeptical and had resisted any kind of therapy for years. Now, I have recommended this kind of therapy to numerous, friends, family and colleagues. I am very much grateful to Jeff for everything that he has done for me. It really has changed everything.
I want to thank Jeff for his kind and open approach to talking about life's issues. He offers accessible, practical tips to sort through the mental chaos and make decisions based on authentic desires.
It was great chatting to you! Thank you for your time! :)
So far, he has been a great help.
He's a very understanding therapist with good advices and helpful experience.
Jeff is a great listener and gives helpful and practical suggestions. And is patient.
Jeff was brilliant. He listened intently and gave feedback and advice where required. He helped me find the tools I needed to get over my divorce and move on focused on my children. He gave support and recommended books and excersizes tailored to my needs. Jeff is an excellent therapist and I'd recommend him to anyone. Thank you Jeff.
Amazing guy that can relate to you on a level that you understand whilst seeing things in a new light
Jeff has been incredible to listen to my troubles and provides such great questions, with which we both gain a new perspective. I’m so glad to have met him. Highly recommend to all.
Jeff is a friend at heart with the expertise of a professional
Great advice, great listener
What a man! Helps massively even after month 1 seen a huge difference. Incredible.
Jeff has helped me deal with my issues and given me the tools I need to set boundaries and create healthy relationships. I am so pleased I was matched with him.
Jeff is fantastic at actively listening and summarising your concerns in a way that clarifies and enlightens the issues. He’s very helpful at working through immediate problems and helping to understand your unhelpful long term patterns. Thanks Jeff!
Excellent first session. It has really given me some food for thought about the issue I was focusing on. Thanks.
Jeff is a game changer. I've tried therapy before, plenty of times, but it was Jeff that reinstated my faith in therapy. His wealth of knowledge, his patience and his outlook all reinvigorated my passion to live and my ability to love myself. I can hardly think how I would have been a month ago if I hadn't reached out to him. Thank you very much, Jeff. You're the best therapist I've ever had. Much love.
