About Jacqueline

BACP member Jacqueline John has 36 years of experience. She works from the United Kingdom and offers counselling remotely and to international clients under UK law guidelines. Jacqueline focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, grief, self-esteem, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting and related issues.

Jacqueline practises as an integrative psychotherapist counsellor and uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. She works within the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework and follows the BACP code of good practice. In sessions she explores present difficulties alongside relevant past experiences to help people make sense of their situation.

Her methods include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). She describes using styles that best fit an individual, drawing on different approaches as needed within a person-centred framework.

Jacqueline has provided counselling in private practice and for external organisations and charities. Her work has involved people of different genders, sexual orientations, faiths and cultures. She has experience with short-term and longer-term contracts and discusses hopes and expectations for counselling at the first meeting.

Sessions are not offered on Saturdays, Sundays or bank holidays. She aims to respond to enquiries within 24 hours. To arrange work with Jacqueline, follow the site steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule the first session.

How her approaches work in remote counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then focus on actions that match their values; it is often used for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationships and how they affect current patterns, which can be useful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns and family-related problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviour patterns and works on practical strategies to change them, often used for anxiety, depression and anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and agree together which methods to use. That collaborative decision can change as the work progresses.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography lists remote and international practice under UK guidance but does not specify exact formats here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow quieter surroundings or shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these options to help match therapy to everyday life.
