About Jacqueline

She works in a calm, respectful way and focuses on tailoring sessions to each person's needs.

She also brings in practical methods to spot unhelpful patterns and try new ways of coping.
Her background includes supporting adults with relationship worries, self-esteem and confidence concerns, grief and loss, and issues linked to parenting and career. Jacqueline also works with people facing addictions, compassion fatigue and codependency. She has experience with a wide range of additional concerns including attachment issues, autism and chronic illness related challenges.
Jacqueline is registered with the BACP, which is shown as BACP. She has provided support to people across different countries and age groups and uses that experience to adapt to varied situations and needs.

How Jacqueline uses her approaches in online therapy
Jacqueline draws on person-centred work to prioritise the client's perspective. This approach centres on listening, reflecting what the client says and building a trusting relationship so people feel able to speak honestly about their concerns. It helps when someone wants a steady, supportive space to make sense of difficult feelings.Mindfulness therapy is used alongside that person-centred base to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and pause before reacting. Simple attention and breathing practices can be useful for stress, anxiety and managing strong emotions. These exercises are practical and can be checked and adjusted in sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline will discuss options and decide together with the client what fits best for their goals and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques across sessions and reviewing what helps most.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy life and keeping a regular routine. Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats in full.
