About Jacqueline

Jacqueline "Jacky" Ellis is a counsellor who brings three years of experience to her practice. She holds a degree and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Jacky works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and low self-esteem.

She uses several approaches to suit different needs, including attachment-based work, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques. Sessions aim to be simple and direct.

Background and approach

Jacky offers a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what feels hard. Jacky also has experience with adoption-related issues and has completed an adoption course that informs her work in that area. She volunteers at an addiction centre, which informs her practical understanding of substance-related difficulties.

In conversation she focuses on helping people notice patterns, make small changes and build more helpful ways of coping. She keeps language straightforward and avoids jargon so people can follow each step. Jacky provides online sessions by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. People in the United Kingdom can work with her in English and international clients are not accepted. Deciding to start counselling can feel daunting.

Jacky aims to make the first steps clear: complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on mutual availability.

Ways of working Jacqueline names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Jacky uses different approaches online

Jacky commonly draws on attachment-based work and client-centred therapy alongside cognitive behavioural ideas. Attachment-based work looks at early relationships and current patterns of connection, which can help with attachment issues, abandonment and communication problems. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping people find their own direction, useful for self-esteem and grief. Cognitive behavioural techniques look at how thoughts and behaviours interact and offer practical steps to reduce anxiety and manage addictive urges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jacky will discuss goals and preferences with each person and try different ways of working until something feels helpful. She adapts methods to what the person says is working or not working rather than following one set style.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a break at work. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to use a camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around daily life and different rhythms of need.
