About Jamie

Jamie Longson is a BACP counsellor with five years of practice. He lives in the United Kingdom and brings a down-to-earth style to sessions. He balances practical tools with a warm, listening approach to help people move forward.

Jamie’s earlier studies in sport science and sport psychology shape how he works. He helps people spot unhelpful patterns and set realistic, achievable goals. Sessions often focus on small, steady changes rather than big, sudden fixes.

Background and approach

His main ways of working are Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, known as CBT. The Client-Centred side creates a non-judgemental space to talk. CBT offers practical techniques to change thoughts and behaviours that cause distress.

Jamie keeps sessions straightforward. Sometimes he leads with specific strategies. Sometimes he follows the person’s lead and listens more.

Either way, the pace is set by the person in the room. He commonly helps with stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship strain, parenting pressures, grief, and life changes. He also works with issues such as body image, attachment concerns, caregiver stress and isolation.

If a concern isn’t listed, people are encouraged to ask about it. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and then pick a time that suits them. Jamie aims to tailor the work to each person’s story and to celebrate the small wins along the way.

How Jamie uses person-centred and CBT online

Jamie works primarily with Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a warm, non-judgemental space where the person feels heard and can explore what matters to them. It helps when someone needs to be listened to and to build confidence in their own choices.

CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and gives practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress because it encourages small experiments and clear techniques to test unhelpful thoughts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together they will choose which methods to try. He adapts the balance of listening and practical tools so the sessions match what someone needs right now.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face-style conversation and practical exercises. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible, on-the-go contact. These options help fit counselling around work, family life and day-to-day commitments.
