About Jackie

NCPS. 25 years of professional work experience. Jackie Kenworthy works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, family conflict, parenting difficulties and career problems. She also supports clients facing addiction, grief, eating and sleeping concerns, and relationship strain.

Jackie uses a mix of approaches including Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Mindfulness Therapy. She explains ideas plainly and helps people talk through what is happening now. Sessions aim to identify practical steps and new ways of handling difficult moments.

Her background includes 25 years of practice in the United Kingdom and the NCPS credential is listed as her qualification. Jackie notes additional focus areas such as attachment issues, ADHD, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image and codependency among others. She also works with concerns linked to trauma responses such as dissociation and coping after disasters.

In sessions she attends to communication and relationship patterns, and to how feelings influence behaviour. Techniques from CBT and DBT are used for managing anxiety and developing coping skills. EFT-informed work is offered for relationship difficulties that involve emotional connection and repair.

To begin someone follows the service flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session. Costs vary by location and membership uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

How her approaches work for remote counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says, helping people clarify their thoughts and feelings and decide what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for regulating intense emotions and improving coping during stressful moments.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative step. The counsellor will talk with the client about their problems, goals and preferences and then agree which methods to try first. It is common to combine elements from different approaches as needs become clearer.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, shorten travel and allow focused weekly check-ins. Many people find remote counselling a practical way to maintain continuity of care while working on stress, relationships and emotional skills with a registered or accredited professional.
