About Jamie

Jamie Maycock is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 11 years of professional experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges and anger. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear conversation rather than jargon.

Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult feelings without getting stuck in them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviours. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills are brought in for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings run high.

Jamie pays attention to attachment patterns and relationship dynamics. That can be useful where anger, intimacy or communication problems show up. She also offers client-centred time, which lets the person lead the pace and topics in sessions.

People come for a wide range of concerns including ADHD, grief, addictions, body image, bipolar and depression, and caregiving stress. Jamie has worked with these issues across clinical and community settings during her career.

Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. Costs vary with location and the service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the online options button.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and decide what matters next. It’s often used for anxiety, stress and getting unstuck from repetitive thinking. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying different behaviours to change how you feel. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and anger management. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss the options with the client and decide together what fits best with goals and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying a skill-based method for a while, then shifting focus if something else seems more useful. Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week and allow short check-ins or longer therapeutic work without travel. They also let people choose sessions that suit their daily routine, for example quieter times that minimise interruptions or shorter meetings that fit into a work break.
