I offer a 12-week structured trauma informed coaching programme where I mentor you through the stages of learning how to navigate the labyrinth of your mind.
Learning to accept the truth about needing help is sometimes the hardest part. It is however a process not an event. If you suffered chronic stress as a child or in the early years of adulthood, chances are, you amazingly created a lot of coping mechanisms that have helped you survive the situation. But what tends to happen with trauma is that we get stuck in those patterns of thinking, feeling and behaviour and unless unpacked, they are impossible to change, even though they stopped serving you long time ago.

I primarily work with Anxiety, Depression and PTSD and their associated symptoms but these can occur from a vast range of life changing events, therefore I provide bespoke Counselling based on your individual life experiences.
Good rapport with your Counsellor's the first step towards achieving change. My Counselling approach is different to anything my clients (both Adults & Children) have experienced before and it's because of this, they've felt at ease quickly and gained maximum benefit from their sessions. I've Counselled since 2019 and have a diverse range of additional skills that I integrate into my Counselling work. I work with Victims of Crime within Kent, as well as Children & Families who've been bereaved. I have over 10yrs experience working with Children & Young People, including those with additional needs, so my approach is inclusive.

I believe that we are all unique individuals despite the many different labels that life has to offer us.
My name is Jacqueline and I qualified as a counsellor in 2008. I have since worked with a wide variety of issues such as bereavement, anxiety, low self worth, lack of confidence, addiction, relational issues such as couples, autism, understanding self concept, shyness and much more. I believe that the professional working relationship between the counsellor and client is of fundamental importance as it provides opportunities in which change can occur. For that reason I provide a free assessment of your needs. Also meeting myself prior to engaging in any counseling will help you to decide if I would be the right counsellor for you.

My ideal client would be someone who has become disillusioned with life, has suffered with a drop in self confidence or self esteem.
By listening carefully and confidentially, I work hard to make clients comfortable and relaxed, enabling them to open up fully on subjects that are troubling them. By understanding all the issues, I then help develop my client’s ability to view things differently, arming then with coping mechanisms and developing their self confidence.

My approach is based on a non-judgmental space for you to chat, but it builds on this by being practical, future-oriented, and feels developmental rather than clinical. Its grounded in the latest psychological approaches, but doesn't seek to diagnose or put anyone in a box or category.

The journey often starts in a place of discomfort: anxiety, bereavement, feeling lost, stuck or frustrated with repeated patterns of behaviour that you can't seem to shift (in life and relationships), physical or mental health problems or the pain of old wounds that haven't healed.
My roots are in psychodynamic practice, though I draw from a range of approaches to help you access your 'inner world'. Most people find me easy to talk to and you might also benefit from creative work when words are not enough or seem hard to find. I offer full 60 minute sessions to allow space and depth to explore and avoid a hurried close to the session.

I know how difficult it can be to reach out for help, especially when life feels overwhelming.
I want you to know that it’s okay to be vulnerable, ask for help, and take time to focus on yourself. While I’m here to offer support and empathy, I also believe in actively engaging in your journey. I take a supportive, proactive approach. I can gently challenge you to push beyond your comfort zone and achieve the goals you’ve set for yourself.

Life Coaching Counsellors
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
