About Jamie
Jamie Maycock is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and parenting concerns. She holds BACP accreditation, and brings more than 11 years of professional experience to her practice. Jamie aims to make the first steps toward change feel less daunting and more possible.
Jamie uses clear, practical ways to talk about problems. She encourages clients to name feelings and make small changes that fit their life.
Background and approach
Conversations are straightforward and focused on what matters most to the person in front of her. Her background includes supporting people through trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and challenges such as addiction, bipolar disorder and depression. She also helps with issues around self-esteem, intimacy, sexual health, and navigating identity in LGBT contexts.
Jamie draws on a mix of therapy approaches to suit different needs. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with cognitive and emotion-focused tools, and uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past connections shape present difficulties. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth.
Sessions aim to build practical skills for coping, clearer ways to manage thoughts and emotions, and steps toward healthier relationships and day-to-day functioning.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Jamie often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and committing to actions that match personal values; it can help when anxiety, avoidance or low motivation get in the way. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect present-day trust and closeness; it can be useful for intimacy-related issues and relationship strain.Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try different techniques, and adapt the plan together with the client. This collaborative exploration helps match methods to what the person actually needs and wants to change.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel, while keeping therapy accessible across different locations.
