About Jamie

Jamie Maycock is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 11 years of professional experience. She works with people facing relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, stress and anxiety, and parenting concerns. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Jamie focuses on giving people room to name difficult emotions and understand patterns that keep repeating. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, client-centred methods and cognitive behavioural techniques. In practice this means helping people notice feelings, try small experiments between sessions, and change how they relate to themselves and others.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including mood difficulties, grief, addiction-related issues, intimacy and self‑esteem. She also supports people dealing with complex situations such as adoption and foster care, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and neurodiversity-related matters. Jamie includes practical strategies for sleep, eating, anger and coping with life changes when these come up.

Sessions are conversational and focused on what matters now. Jamie helps people clarify goals, practise different responses, and review what works. The emphasis is on gradual change that fits everyday life rather than one-off fixes.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and are structured via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Jamie uses EFT, ACT and attachment work online

Emotionally‑Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and naming the emotions that drive relationship patterns and personal reactions. It helps people to understand the feelings behind repeated behaviours and to find new ways of responding. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages noticing thoughts and sensations without fighting them, then choosing actions that reflect personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current relationships and helps people recognise and change those interaction patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will collaborate with each person to decide whether EFT, ACT, attachment work or a blend best fits their needs and goals. That choice is reviewed as work progresses so methods can be adjusted if something is not helping.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or remove the need to be on camera. These practical benefits often help people keep therapy consistent alongside family, work and other commitments.
