About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Isles is a BACP counsellor with 18 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She draws on her training in counselling to help people who are stressed, anxious or facing difficult life changes. Jacqueline aims to create a calm setting where people can talk through what is worrying them and find a way forward.
Jacqueline uses approaches rooted in Client-Centred and psychodynamic thinking. She offers steady, attentive listening and helps people make connections between past experiences and present difficulties.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to be guided by the person's priorities and pace rather than a fixed agenda. Common issues she supports include relationship strain, parenting pressures, grief, trauma and abuse, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar, and challenges like low self-esteem, anger and compassion fatigue. She also works with people navigating identity and LGBT matters, ADHD, and coping with major life transitions.
Jacqueline tailors longer or shorter-term work to each person's needs. The focus is practical - understanding what feels unmanageable now and trying small ways to change it. Her way of working is respectful and non-directive, aiming to help people feel heard and less burdened by their difficulties.
People considering therapy are encouraged to reflect on what they hope to change. Jacqueline then helps shape sessions around those goals so work feels relevant and useful from the start.

Approaches Jacqueline lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jacqueline will talk with the person about their needs, goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working that suit them. That collaborative decision can shift over time as the person learns more about what helps.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls are close to face-to-face conversation, phone calls suit those who prefer not to be on camera, live chat can be helpful for shorter check-ins and messaging is useful for people who want a written way to reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and everyday life.
