About Jamie
Jamie Maycock is a BACP-registered counsellor with 11 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, grief or relationship strain. Jamie aims to make the first step feel manageable and understandable.
Her approach is grounded in Narrative therapy and client-centred care. She helps people tell and reframe the stories that shape their lives. Sessions focus on clear, practical conversations rather than clinical jargon.
Background and approach
Jamie also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-based ideas when they fit a person's needs. These approaches help people notice difficult thoughts, reconnect with important values, and understand how early relationships influence current patterns. She adapts methods when someone needs more structure or skills-based work.
Clients bring concerns such as trauma, parenting pressures, addiction, ADHD, low self-esteem and workplace stress. Jamie has additional experience with grief, chronic illness, body image and intimacy-related issues. She also supports people navigating identity issues and kink-aware topics.
In sessions Jamie listens with warmth and without judgement. She works collaboratively to set simple goals and practical next steps. People leave with clearer thinking, small experiments to try, and ways to manage intense feelings between appointments.

Online session options
Therapeutic approaches suited to online work
Jamie draws on Narrative therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. In plain terms, this means putting difficult experiences into words, noticing unhelpful patterns, and trying out different ways of telling the story so life feels less stuck.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify their values and take practical steps despite uncomfortable feelings. ACT offers simple exercises to notice thoughts and focus on meaningful action. Attachment-based ideas are brought in when relationship patterns and early connections shape recurring difficulties; these help people understand why they feel or react the way they do and try new ways of relating.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk through options and shape sessions around a person’s goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process where methods are adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions offer flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls let people work face to face without travelling. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick reflections, shorter check-ins or for people who prefer writing to speaking. Registered or accredited professionals can use these options to fit therapy around work, caregiving or other commitments.
