Background and approach

Her approach blends several evidence-informed methods. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts without being ruled by them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours.

Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about why relationships feel difficult. Jacqueline also uses client-centred and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy techniques when they fit the client’s needs. This can include building coping skills for anger, impulsivity or compassion fatigue.

She tailors sessions to each person rather than following a fixed script. People come to Jacqueline for many concerns: relationship tension, family problems, career stress, grief, parenting-related strain, ADHD-related challenges, and low self-esteem. She works with individuals to create a calm, non-judgmental space to talk through these issues.

The focus is on practical change that fits everyday life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, getting unstuck during life changes, and coping with grief. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behaviour changes to reduce worry or improve sleep. That approach often suits people wanting structured exercises and clear tools. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and can help when communication, codependency or family of origin issues are causing distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline treats this as a shared process and will help clients decide which methods fit their goals and personality. Sessions may combine elements from different approaches and are adjusted over time as needs change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer therapy sessions and when visual connection helps build rapport. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit quick reflections, journalling-style exchanges or people who prefer not to use audio. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
