About Jaqui

Jaqui Lamb is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, addiction concerns, grief, parenting strain, and challenges such as ADHD and body image.

Background and approach

Jaqui works online using video, phone, chat and messaging to make talking about difficult things easier. Jaqui draws on several therapeutic approaches to suit each person's needs.

She uses elements from the Gottman Method and attachment-based work to look at how relationships and early connections affect present feelings. Client-centred and emotionally-focused ideas shape sessions so the person is heard and understood first.

Her background includes many years in the education sector and three years practising as a therapist. That mix gives experience with life-stage issues, family dynamics, and practical coping strategies.

Jaqui aims for straightforward, compassionate sessions where people find tools to manage stress and build resilience. Sessions are collaborative; she listens, reflects, and offers techniques that match the person's situation.

The work often focuses on manageable steps - calming strategies, clearer communication, or shifts in thinking that reduce overwhelm. Jaqui supports clients exploring identity, parenting pressures, trauma recovery, and career crossroads.

She invites people to begin a conversation about change without pressure. The first meetings are used to understand what matters most and agree simple next steps.

Jaqui encourages steady progress so people can feel calmer, stronger and more able to make choices that suit them.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions help

Jaqui often draws on the Gottman Method to look at how interaction patterns affect relationships and to build clearer communication and emotional connection. This approach is useful for people who want practical skills for arguing less and understanding each other better.

Attachment-Based Therapy is another strand of her work, focusing on how early bonds shape current feelings and responses. It helps people who struggle with trust, closeness, or repeated relationship patterns to recognise needs and try different ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jaqui collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she adapts the plan as progress is made. The aim is a tailored mix that feels doable and relevant to real life.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy days and practical access when travel is difficult. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters, phone sessions suit lower bandwidth or hands-free check-ins, and live chat or text sessions work well for brief updates or when people prefer writing. These options help people fit therapy around work, caregiving or study and keep continuity even when life is unpredictable.
