About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Selby is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common difficulties such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and anger. Jacqueline also supports people facing relationship strain, grief, parenting stresses and major life changes.
Her work follows a person-centred approach, which starts from the view that people know their story best. Sessions begin by listening closely to what matters most and then choosing practical steps together. She uses straightforward conversation and reflection to help people spot unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding.
Jacqueline’s practice also draws on attachment-based ideas and mindfulness techniques to understand how close relationships shape feelings and reactions. Motivational interviewing is used when people want to change habits such as addictive behaviours or low motivation. Trauma-focused methods are available for those dealing with distressing past experiences.
She has supported adults across many countries and a wide range of issues, including work stress, compassion fatigue, adoption and foster care concerns, chronic illness, caregiving stress and body image problems. Sessions are practical and paced to suit each person’s situation and goals.
Jacqueline works from the United Kingdom and carries out sessions in English. Her approach is collaborative and direct, aimed at helping people manage strong emotions, reduce repeated conflict and build clearer ways of coping.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Jacqueline blends person-centred work with attachment-based thinking and mindfulness in online sessions. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can name problems and decide what matters most. Attachment-based ideas look at how past close relationships affect current reactions and patterns, which is useful for anger that ties back to trust or abandonment. Mindfulness teaches simple attention practices to notice feelings early and respond differently rather than react.Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. Jacqueline will listen to your goals and try approaches that suit your situation. Together you will review what helps and adjust the plan as you go, aiming for practical changes in how you cope with strong emotions and relationship strain.
Her biography notes that live phone, video and chat sessions have been used for booking, so check the current options before you book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when that feels better. Confirm the session formats offered and schedule a time that fits your routine.
