About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Carter- Brown is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 21 years of experience. She works with adults on problems like stress, anxiety, relationship difficulty, anger, grief and addiction. She also helps people dealing with trauma and abuse and those facing life transitions.
Jacqueline draws on psychodynamic and trauma-focused ways of working. Sessions look at patterns from the past that affect current feelings and relationships. She also uses solution-focused ideas to set clear, practical goals and to try out different coping strategies between sessions.
Her approach is steady and reflective. She listens for how early attachment and family of origin issues shape present reactions, including control issues, codependency and intimacy problems. The work can explore abandonment, communication difficulties and the emotional impact of separation or blended family dynamics.
Jacqueline supports people coping with substance use, eating and body image concerns, and issues around sexual identity and intimacy. She can help with ageing and geriatric questions as well as feelings of emptiness or low self-esteem. Practical steps are balanced with exploring underlying emotions when needed.
Sessions are presented honestly and without pressure. Her way of working aims to identify patterns, try different responses and strengthen what already works. To start, people complete a short questionnaire and then book a first session to see how the approach fits their needs.
How her approaches translate to online work
Jacqueline uses psychodynamic and trauma-focused approaches alongside solution-focused steps. Psychodynamic work looks at how early relationships affect current feelings and behaviour, which can help with anger, attachment issues and long-standing relationship patterns. Trauma-focused work concentrates on safe ways to process distressing events and reduce their hold on day-to-day reactions. Solution-focused methods focus on small, practical changes and short-term goals to reduce stress and improve coping.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Jacqueline will work with clients to identify which methods suit their needs and goals. Together they decide whether to focus on exploring past patterns, processing traumatic experiences, or testing practical strategies in daily life. The plan can change as work progresses so it fits the person's preferences and progress.
