About Jaqui

Jaqui Lamb is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years’ experience working as a therapist. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, grief, addiction, ADHD and adjustments to major life changes.

Jaqui uses a mix of approaches to meet what someone brings to a session. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships affect current feelings. She also uses client-centred and emotionally focused ways of working to help people name feelings and improve important relationships.

Her style is straightforward and practical. Sessions involve talking things through, trying small techniques and checking what helps in daily life. She encourages clients to notice strengths they already have and to build simple coping routines that fit with work, study or caring responsibilities.

Before training as a therapist Jaqui worked for over 20 years in the education sector. That background informs how she supports people managing study, first jobs, parenting pressures and career decisions. She also has experience helping people affected by adoption, attachment questions, blended family dynamics and fatherhood issues.

Sessions are offered in English and take place in the United Kingdom. Cost varies with location and sessions operate via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.

How her approaches guide online sessions

Jaqui commonly draws on attachment-based therapy and emotionally focused therapy alongside client-centred work. Attachment-based therapy looks at how earlier relationships shape current expectations and emotions, which can help with trust, intimacy and recurring relationship patterns. Emotionally focused therapy focuses on naming emotional experiences and improving emotional connection, useful for relationship strain and grief. Client-centred work prioritises the person’s own perspective, encouraging reflection and self-directed goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk through what feels most useful and try different ways of working to see what helps. That choice is collaborative and adjusts as goals or circumstances change.

The practical benefits of online sessions should be checked before booking, as session formats are not specified here. Confirm which formats the therapist currently offers. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around study or a first job, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when schedules are tight. Phone options can be helpful when a video call is difficult, and shorter sessions can fit into a work break. Registered and accredited professionals use these options to help people keep therapy manageable alongside everyday life.
