About Jamie
BACP. 11 years' experience. Jamie Maycock focuses on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, stress, anxiety and parenting matters, among other issues. She works in straightforward, person-focused counselling and uses several clinical approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy.
Jamie begins sessions by inviting people to describe what is most worrying for them. She listens for practical problems and patterns of thought and feeling that keep those problems going. Conversations often include noticing unhelpful thinking, learning new ways to manage strong emotions, and experimenting with small changes between sessions.
Her practice addresses a broad range of concerns beyond the most common ones. These include addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, self-esteem, career stress, bipolar and depression, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas listed include abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues, body image and chronic health difficulties.
Sessions combine direct problem-solving and reflective work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques are used to spot and change patterns of thought. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people to identify values and take practical action. Attachment-focused work looks at how early relationships affect current ways of relating.
Jamie works in the United Kingdom and offers counselling in English. International clients are accepted. Costs vary with location and sessions are arranged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Jamie's approaches work for online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on what matters to the person and on taking small, values-driven steps toward those aims, which can help with anxiety, depression and life transitions.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of relating learned from earlier relationships. It helps people recognise how those patterns shape current relationships and practice different ways of connecting and responding when problems arise.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will discuss different methods and decide together which techniques and aims fit the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can change over time as goals shift.
Practical benefits of online counselling include easier scheduling around work and family life, fewer travel requirements and shorter check-ins when needed. The biography does not specify session formats here, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find remote sessions useful for managing ongoing care and fitting counselling into a busy week.
