About Jamie

Jamie Maycock is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 11 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with relationship difficulties, stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, and parenting strains. Her practice also covers a wide range of concerns such as addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and codependency.

She uses clear, practical talking and reflection to help people notice patterns that are making life harder. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small changes that make daily life easier. She draws on approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help with thoughts and behaviours, and on Attachment-Based and Client-Centred work to look at how relationships affect feelings.

Jamie aims to make sessions straightforward. She encourages honest conversation about difficult feelings. Conversations can cover boundaries, people-pleasing, setting limits, and coping strategies for stress or difficult family dynamics.

Her background includes work supporting people with a wide range of needs, from mood disorders to relationship and intimacy concerns. That experience feeds into practical tools she offers in session, such as grounding practices, behaviour experiments, and steps for clearer communication.

People who contact her often want to stop over-prioritising others, manage anxiety, or make steadier choices in relationships. To begin, the pathway is to use the site's matching steps and arrange an initial session to see how the approach fits everyday life.

How sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them. It focuses on what matters to someone and on small actions that match those values, which can help with anxiety and decisions in relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers straightforward tools to test unhelpful thinking, rehearse new responses and reduce anxiety or mood symptoms. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early and current relationship patterns shape feelings and closeness. It is useful when someone keeps losing themselves in relationships or struggles with trust and boundaries. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan as needed so sessions meet practical needs. Confirm which session formats are available before booking, as the therapist's biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel, allow shorter check-ins, or let someone choose not to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can deliver the approaches above by adapting techniques to suit how a person prefers to work.
