About Jacqueline
Jacqueline "Jacky" Ellis is a degree-educated counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has three years of practice and offers a calm, empathetic presence for people facing difficult life moments. Jacky also volunteers at an addiction centre and brings that day-to-day experience into sessions.
Her background is integrative, drawing on psychodynamic ideas about early trauma, client-centred humanistic work about authenticity, and cognitive behavioural approaches to thoughts and behaviours.
Background and approach
This mix lets her tailor sessions to individual needs rather than follow a single method. She is based in the United Kingdom and works in English. People typically come to her for stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and self-esteem concerns.
Jacky also focuses on issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, attachment difficulties, eating and food-related concerns, and the impacts of chronic illness and pain. She aims to help people name what feels wrong and find practical ways to change. In the room she offers empathy and warmth without judgement.
Sessions involve talking through difficult memories, learning new ways to manage emotions, and trying small changes between meetings. Jacky aims for a collaborative pace and clear, simple steps instead of clinical language. If someone wants to begin, they can use the site Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire.
Scheduling then follows based on therapist availability and the subscription terms.

How Jacqueline works online
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of the work. The therapist offers acceptance and reflection while the client leads the pace and topics, which suits people who want a non-directive, supportive space.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work together with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That choice is reviewed over time so the work stays relevant and useful.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing a meeting during a work break. It can also make some check-ins quicker if that suits the situation. Confirm the current session options on the booking page before you start, as formats are set by the therapist and platform. Registered or accredited professionals help people adapt these therapeutic approaches to online settings so the work remains practical and focused.
