Jamie Maycock, BACP

Jamie Maycock uses a practical, person-focused approach to help people manage stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. She is a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) member and draws on 11 years of experience. Jamie writes in plain terms and makes space for honest conversation. She aims to help people feel heard and understood without judgement.

Her work often centres on everyday problems that pile up - trouble sleeping, feeling low, career strain, or coping after loss. She also supports those dealing with trauma, addiction and difficulties linked to identity and intimacy. Sessions are aimed at making small, useful changes that add up over time.

Jamie blends approaches to match each person’s needs. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice thoughts and choose what matters most. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful patterns and try alternatives. Attachment-based and client-centred work shape a warm, responsive atmosphere during sessions.

Practical tools and short exercises may be part of the work, alongside listening and reflection. People can expect a collaborative process where goals are reviewed and adjusted. Jamie also helps with coaching-style concerns, such as career direction or rebuilding confidence.

She offers sessions to people across the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Appointments are available by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different schedules and needs.

Approaches that guide online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying small behavioural experiments to see what changes. It often helps with low mood, anxiety and sleeping problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can be helpful for intimacy, relationship concerns and issues around trust.

Choosing the right approach usually happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, try different techniques and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative process means the focus can shift over time as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are close to in-person work and good for deeper conversations, phone sessions can fit a break at work, and text or chat can be helpful for brief check-ins or when someone prefers not to use video. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on practical progress.
