What working with me is like
My approach is active and collaborative. I listen carefully, ask questions and help you notice connections between your experiences, emotions and relationships.
We can explore how earlier experiences influence the present, while also finding practical ways to manage current difficulties. This might involve understanding anxiety, expressing feelings, setting boundaries or recognising what you need.
Working integratively means I draw on different therapeutic approaches and adapt our work to you. We will discuss the pace and direction together, with space to say what feels helpful and what doesn’t.
Sessions and practical details
I offer counselling and psychotherapy for adults in Oxfordshire, alongside online sessions across the UK.
Sessions last 50 minutes, usually at the same time each week. We can discuss a focused period of therapy or longer-term work, depending on your needs.

About me
I’m Jim Slattery, an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, and founder of Heart Mind Body.
My qualifications include an MSc and Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy, alongside a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychology. I also bring over ten years’ experience in mindfulness, psychoeducation and compassion-based work.
I have a particular interest in helping people understand recurring relationship patterns, connect with difficult emotions and develop a less critical relationship with themselves. I also work with autistic adults and adults with ADHD, exploring each person’s experiences of identity, relationships and belonging.
