About Jacqueline
Jacqueline John offers calm, experienced support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief or major life changes. She introduces herself with warmth and a straightforward approach, helping clients talk through urgent problems and longer-term concerns in a way that feels manageable. Jacqueline draws on 36 years of practice to tailor sessions to each person.
She is a BACP member, which means she follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy's ethical framework.
How Jacqueline works
Sessions are offered remotely from the United Kingdom and to international clients under UK law guidelines. Her work is integrative in style. Jacqueline combines client-centred listening with approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based perspectives and elements of dialectical behaviour work.
She uses whichever method best fits the person in front of her rather than applying a single model to everyone. Practical issues are covered alongside emotional ones. Jacqueline helps people address parenting concerns, career stress, addictions, intimacy problems, family conflict, trauma and grief.
She also supports those coping with shame, guilt, hoarding, abandonment or adoption-related concerns. Sessions can be short term or longer term depending on what people want to achieve. Availability does not include Saturdays, Sundays or bank holidays, and Jacqueline aims to reply to enquiries within 24 hours.
Initial meetings discuss hopes for counselling and the style that will work best.

Online support options
How her approaches adapt to online therapy
Jacqueline commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside person-centred listening. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and focus on actions that matter to them rather than trying to push feelings away; it often suits anxiety, depression and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current connections and helps people develop more supported ways of relating, which can assist with intimacy, family problems and abandonment concerns.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Jacqueline will discuss goals and try out methods together, adjusting the style as therapy progresses so sessions remain relevant to what the client wants to achieve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and a fuller conversation, while phone sessions work well if bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins, flexible scheduling or when typing helps a person reflect before responding. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel.
