About Jacqueline
BACP. 9 years' experience. Jacqueline Lynch works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, addictions, LGBT concerns, family and intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, career worries, depression, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue.
Jacqueline uses Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy. She aims to make sessions straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what is troubling the client now and on steps that can help day to day.
Her style puts the person’s experience at the centre of counselling. Sessions involve listening, reflecting and working through patterns that contribute to distress. Techniques may include identifying unhelpful thoughts, looking at past relational patterns, and setting concrete goals for change.
Jacqueline also offers support for more specific issues such as attachment and abandonment concerns, autism and Asperger Syndrome, blended family matters, body image, cancer-related stress, caregiver strain, codependency, commitment and communication problems, control issues, divorce and domestic violence, and substance and food-related problems.
Clients can expect short-term focused work or longer-term exploration depending on what they want. Sessions are conducted in English and take place in the United Kingdom. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Approaches used in remote counselling and what they involve
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client’s experience and aims to support conversation and reflection. It is useful for problems tied to self-esteem, relationship concerns and emotional distress.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at connections between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It helps with anxiety, low mood and practical problems by teaching skills to change thinking patterns and day-to-day routines.
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and reducing the impact of traumatic events. It combines careful discussion of past events with strategies to manage strong emotions and reduce avoidance.
Finding the best approach is part of the first sessions. The counsellor will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit the client’s needs, goals and preferences. This may mean focusing on short-term goals with CBT techniques or taking a longer psychodynamic or trauma-focused path depending on what the client wants.
Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not specify formats here. Many people find remote counselling helps fit sessions into busy lives by avoiding travel, allowing a quieter setting or making it easier to fit a session into a work break. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the way they work to match practical needs and goals.
