About Jamie

Jamie Cargill is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, and issues related to LGBT identity. He also helps with anger, self-esteem concerns, addiction, trauma, and life changes.

Jamie keeps sessions straightforward and practical. He focuses on listening carefully and helping people make sense of what is happening in their lives. He will discuss what brings someone to counselling and what they hope to change, or start with small steps when goals are unclear.

His work uses client-centred principles, which means the person’s experience guides the conversation. He also draws on solution-focused methods to identify useful next steps and build momentum. These approaches aim to make therapy feel manageable rather than overwhelming.

In early meetings, Jamie talks about how he works and what to expect. He covers boundaries in the therapeutic relationship and outlines how sessions will run. If someone has several concerns, he helps prioritise which ones to tackle first.

People who are new to counselling will find the initial session paced to help reduce anxiety. Jamie explains options and invites collaboration on the plan. Over time the focus shifts to practical coping, clearer communication, and small changes that add up.

How sessions work

How his approaches shape online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following what matters most to the client. It helps when someone needs space to understand feelings about anger, identity, relationships or loss. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that can be tried between sessions to change patterns and build confidence. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jamie discusses goals and preferences in early conversations and adjusts methods as the work progresses. He invites feedback so sessions stay aligned with what the client finds most helpful. Confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make regular meetings easier to fit around work, family and daily routines. They also allow for shorter check-ins if needed, and can reduce travel time so making time for therapy is simpler. Registered or accredited professionals typically help clients decide how to work together and which approach will suit their situation.
