Practical moments in sessions may include reflecting on relationship patterns, identifying triggers, and trying small changes between meetings. Jacqueline helps people coping with grief, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue and life changes. She also supports those navigating ADHD, bipolar challenges, LGBT issues and the stresses of parenting.
Her background includes MA-level counselling and work related to family and parenting programmes. Clients can expect appointments by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Jacqueline uses a subscription model for sessions which can be cancelled at any time.

How Jacqueline's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. The therapist creates space for the person to describe what matters and helps reflect back what they are feeling. This approach is useful for anxiety, stress and parenting concerns where people need to feel heard and understood.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that come from past experiences and show up in current relationships. Sessions may explore recurring reactions, early influences and unresolved feelings to make behaviour easier to understand. This can help with issues such as grief, trauma and difficulties in close relationships.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. Jacqueline will discuss options and agree a plan with each person, adapting methods to match goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and paced to what feels helpful for the individual.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual contact matters, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suits short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family life and different time zones.
