About Jamie
Jamie Cargill is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, LGBTQ+ concerns, relationship difficulties and grief, among many other issues young adults commonly face.
He keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Jamie listens to what matters most and helps clients make sense of feelings and choices. Early sessions focus on what brought someone to counselling and on setting simple, realistic goals where that is helpful.
Jamie uses a person-focused style that centres the client's perspective. Conversations may look at thoughts, behaviours and patterns that get in the way of day-to-day life. He also draws on solution-focused techniques to identify small, concrete steps that can change how a situation feels week to week.
Across seven years of practice he has supported people through career changes, relationship breakups, identity questions, grief, and the stress of early adulthood. He also works with issues such as addiction, body image, attachment and trauma when these come up in sessions.
Clients can expect a direct and down-to-earth approach. Jamie aims to make the first meeting manageable and to help people decide what to try next. If someone is unsure what to work on, he will help prioritise what feels most pressing and practical.
How Jamie uses client-focused and solution work online
Jamie uses Client-Centred Therapy to foreground the client's own views, feelings and priorities. In practice this means sessions begin with the client talking about what feels most urgent and Jamie reflecting that back so the problem feels clearer. Client-Centred Therapy is useful for identity questions, relationship worries and emotional overwhelm.He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to find small, practical steps that make a difference quickly. That approach looks for existing strengths and past successes, then builds short-term goals. It can be helpful for stress, low mood, coping with life change and setting achievable steps during career or study transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. That discussion is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the options available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around studying or early career hours, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a busy week. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt session length and focus to what fits everyday life.
