About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Lawrence is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS and has 23 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, self-esteem, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting and related concerns. Jacqueline also lists codependency, attachment and family matters among her common areas of work.
She uses a pluralistic approach, mixing methods to suit each person's needs. That means she might use attachment ideas to look at relationship patterns, cognitive-behavioural techniques to tackle anxious thoughts, or psychodynamic questions to trace patterns from earlier life. Sessions are conversational and practical rather than technical.
Jacqueline places emphasis on a collaborative relationship. She listens to how someone feels and thinks about their situation and works with them to clarify goals. Her aim is to help people develop clearer perspective and practical strategies for coping with life changes and stressors.
When past trauma or present difficulties come up, she helps people identify manageable steps forward. This can include learning ways to handle strong emotions, building problem-solving routines, or practising different ways of relating to others. The work is paced to what each person can manage.
She has experience with adults and young people affected by loss, abuse, family problems and long-standing relational patterns. Sessions are offered in English and Jacqueline accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm the current session options she offers.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online working
Jacqueline draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural therapy as part of her approach. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people recognise recurring ways of relating. Cognitive behavioural work focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours to reduce anxiety and low mood.She combines these with client-centred ways of working, which involve listening closely and reflecting back what a person is experiencing. Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Jacqueline will discuss options and help the person and counsellor choose the methods that best match the client’s goals and preferences.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a break. The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm which formats are available before booking. Working online can still involve focused conversation, practical exercises and agreed tasks to try between sessions, all adapted to the circumstances of the person seeking help.
