Hi, my name is Jackie. Welcome to my page.
I understand how challenging it can be to reach out for the help and support you need. Having been on your side of the counselling room, I empathize deeply with your feelings.
My personal experiences with childhood trauma, sexual abuse, rape, domestic violence, addictions, and loss have given me a profound understanding of their impacts. These experiences enable me to genuinely empathize with you and comprehend the difficulty in trusting someone.
As a Person-Centred Integrative Counsellor, my approach focuses on you rather than positioning myself as the expert. My aim is to help you find new awareness, understanding, and resolutions to your issues. Person-Centred Counselling emphasizes building a trusting, genuine, and non-judgmental relationship, creating a safe environment for you. Integrative Counselling considers you as an individual, incorporating elements from various approaches to help you explore and cope with your issues.
I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your journey.
Warm regards,
Jackie

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Very professional, compassionate and just so understanding with great expertise.
Jackie helped me through most difficult time in my life. I cannot recommend her more. She is just very lovely person to talk to and you can feel she truly cares. I was in abusive relationship she she supported me for my whole journey. She has vast knowledge and she is just a great person
I've only worked with Jacqueline for a few weeks but I felt comfortable straight away. I feel she understands me and is insightful. I'm looking forward to working on my goals with her support.
Jackie has been so lovely and understanding, patient and kind. She has helped me to understand myself and encouraged me to seek further medical support for my mental health issues, which has given me confidence to reach out and ask for help. Thank you so much!
Jackie is warm, empathic and engaging. I believe she is sensitive and intuitive, and able to tune in to what an individual client needs at a given time. She’s a great listener, down to earth and respectful. I have been working with her for around six months now and she has definitely made a positive difference to my life
She really gets me and she offers great advice. I can already see a difference in my outlook on things and my confidence. Very grateful to have her when I’ve got so much going on.
I built a good relationship with Jackie in my short time. She has helped me in ways look at things from outside the box.
Jackie is wonderful. We clicked from first phone session and she checks in with me regularly. She is a real gem, I'm so glad to have found her.
So far we have text, she is throughly positive and supportive. Looking forward to speaking to her soon.
Jacqueline has a warm manner and is an excellent listener. Even when I go off on a long winded explanation of something with various changes of direction, she patiently listen then demonstrates her expertise with astute summaries and observations. I am delighted to have found her.
