About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Selby, BACP counsellor, has 15 years of experience in mental health. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, self‑esteem, relationship strain and anger. Sessions are offered in English and she has worked with people across many countries.
Jacqueline uses a person‑centred style that puts the client’s experience first. She listens without judgment and helps people identify their strengths. The focus is practical - prioritise worries, spot unhelpful patterns and try small changes to see what helps.
Her background includes supporting a wide range of issues. These include parenting, grief, addictions, LGBT concerns, career stress, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue. Additional areas she addresses are attachment difficulties, adoption and foster care, ageing, autism and body image concerns.
When working on anger Jacqueline aims to help clients recognise triggers and the patterns that keep anger cycling. She combines person‑centred conversation with mindful noticing and techniques from motivational interviewing to support changes people want to make. Sessions are paced to suit each person and progress is reviewed regularly.
Practical details are straightforward. Jacqueline typically works weekdays and outlines her messaging routine for clients. To begin she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How sessions work
How Jacqueline uses therapy approaches online
Jacqueline combines person‑centred work with mindfulness and motivational interviewing in her sessions. Person‑centred therapy means the counsellor follows the client’s lead, listens closely and helps the client name priorities and next steps. Mindfulness therapy encourages simple noticing of thoughts and bodily signals to reduce reactivity and manage feelings like anger and anxiety. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative way to explore motivation for change and to support practical steps forward.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods as the relationship develops. That collaborative process helps clarify which techniques feel useful and where to focus the sessions over time.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping momentum between appointments. The biography asks readers to confirm current session options before booking, so check which formats are offered when you schedule. Online appointments can make it easier to attend weekly check‑ins, shorten travel time and allow sessions to fit around work or caring duties without promising a particular service.
