About Jaime
Counsellor and member of BACP with three years' experience, Jaime Van Weede offers counselling in the United Kingdom and works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief and ADHD. She uses a person-centred way of working and draws on additional methods as needed. Sessions are described as a place to talk things through and increase self-awareness.
Jaime works from a reflective stance that puts the client's experience first. She often begins with a person-centred approach and then introduces other techniques when they might help. Cognitive behavioural tools may be used for thinking and behaviour patterns, and mindfulness ideas are used to help with present-moment experience.
Her background includes membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, NCPS accreditation, an enhanced DBS and a Level 3 certificate in Safeguarding. These are kept alongside three years of practical counselling work in South Devon settings.
In sessions she helps people talk about daily pressure, relationship strain, loss, traumatic events and the challenges of attention differences. She also works with concerns linked to abandonment, attachment, blended family issues, long-term illness, caregiving stress and addiction. The focus is on helping clients see patterns and try new ways of responding.
Jaime says some people prefer a short period of focused work and others choose longer support. She suggests reviewing progress together at agreed points to check pace and goals. The process is collaborative and practical, concentrating on what clients want to address next.
How Jaime uses person centred, CBT and mindfulness online
Jaime works from a person centred base which focuses on listening and understanding the client's experience. This approach aims to help people feel heard and to clarify what they want to work on, whether that is stress, grief or relationship difficulties.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) techniques to look at unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns. CBT tools can be useful for anxiety, low mood and for developing practical coping strategies. Mindfulness therapy is used to build attention to the present moment and can help reduce reactivity and rumination.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jaime will discuss options with the client and agree together which methods to try based on needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and reviewed over time so the method can change if it is not helping.
