Jamie Maycock, BACP

Jamie Maycock is a counsellor who draws on practical, evidence-based approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. She works with clients facing trauma and abuse, parenting pressures, and intimacy-related issues. Jamie uses clear, everyday language and aims to make sessions straightforward and useful from the first meeting.

With 11 years of experience, Jamie blends several therapeutic styles to suit different needs. She often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take steps that matter. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to spot patterns of thinking and try out small changes that relieve anxiety. She also uses Client-Centred and Attachment-Based ideas to build trust and deepen understanding of relationship patterns.

Sessions focus on practical steps and tried techniques rather than jargon. Jamie helps clients develop coping strategies for sleep, eating, addictions and mood concerns, and supports people dealing with grief, career stress or major life changes. She also works with issues around body image, neurodiversity and caring responsibilities.

Jamie holds BACP accreditation, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which reflects professional standards in the UK. She offers therapy in English and accepts international clients who want to work in English.

To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Jamie adapts therapeutic approaches for online work

Jamie commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people name their values and take small meaningful actions despite difficult thoughts or feelings. ACT can be helpful for anxiety, stress and life transitions by focusing on what matters rather than getting stuck on worry.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviours in everyday life. CBT tends to suit people who want practical steps to reduce symptoms like panic, low mood or sleep problems. Jamie combines these with client-centred principles to ensure sessions feel respectful and collaborative.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adapt methods together in a collaborative way. That means trying approaches, checking what helps, and shifting course when needed to match the client's needs.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving and travel, and it can reduce time spent commuting. It also allows short check-ins or longer deep work depending on what someone needs, and makes it possible to continue therapy when life circumstances change.
