About Jacqueline
Counsellor Jacqueline Lawrence, BACP, NCPS, has 23 years of practice helping people with stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self esteem, depression, family issues, trauma and abuse, parenting and career concerns. She works with people facing life changes and compassion fatigue and also lists specific focuses such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues and caregiver stress.
Jacqueline uses a pluralistic approach. That means she draws on several ways of working and chooses methods that fit the person and the moment. Sessions are about listening, clarifying what matters, and deciding practical steps to try between meetings.
Her style is collaborative. She asks about feelings and thoughts, and she helps people map how past experiences affect current reactions. Where trauma or loss are involved, she pays attention to how those events shape relationships and self‑understanding.
Techniques include client‑centred work, cognitive behavioural ideas, psychodynamic thinking and attachment‑based perspectives. Solution‑focused methods are also used to set short term goals and track progress.
Jacqueline has worked with adults and young people across a wide range of emotional difficulties. She accepts international clients and practices in the United Kingdom. Prospective clients are invited to check session options and the process before booking.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online counselling
Jacqueline draws on attachment‑based work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This helps when people find it hard to trust or form close connections. Client‑centred methods focus on the person in the room, listening carefully and following what they say to build understanding.She also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes. That can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with stressful situations. Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work and the therapist will discuss options with each person. They will agree which methods to try based on needs, goals and preferences, and review what is working as therapy progresses.
If you want online sessions, check the current session options before booking as the profile does not list them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or childcare, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑in meetings when needed. Tell the therapist what fits your routine and she will help arrange a format that works for you.
