About Jamie
Jamie Maycock is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eleven years of experience. She focuses on anxiety and stress alongside relationship difficulties and trauma. Jamie aims to make the first step easier by offering calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed.
She keeps sessions simple and direct. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what the client wants to change. Practical skills and short exercises are used so people leave with tools to manage worry, low mood or flashbacks.
Background and approach
Jamie draws on several well-known approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based work. She adapts these to fit each person, using reflective listening and task-oriented techniques as needed. The emphasis is on small, steady steps rather than quick fixes.
People come with many concerns such as grief, parenting strain, addictions, eating or sleeping problems, and issues around identity and intimacy. Jamie also supports those facing career pressures, burnout and compassion fatigue. She works with overlapping problems when they occur together.
Sessions are available in English and can be arranged online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a session to suit the client. Jamie aims to build a working relationship that fits each person’s pace and goals.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to focus on actions that reflect their values. It can help with anxiety, avoidance and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses practical exercises to reduce worry and improve mood. It is often used for anxiety, stress and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build safer ways of relating and managing emotions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that suit the person's needs and goals. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to use and adjust them over time.
Online sessions can be held by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions are flexible and need less bandwidth, and chat or messaging can suit short check-ins or written processing. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
