Jacqueline Lawrence
Experienced counsellor for trauma and life change
About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Lawrence helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with depression, trauma and abuse, parenting pressures, career uncertainty and compassion fatigue. Jacqueline welcomes conversations about family difficulties, attachment concerns and life changes.
She works in English and practises from the United Kingdom. Jacqueline brings 23 years of experience to her counselling. She uses a pluralistic approach, drawing on several methods to suit each person’s needs at different times.
Background and approach
Sessions begin with listening closely to what someone is finding hard and what they hope to change. She works in a collaborative way, so clients and Jacqueline decide together what to try. Practical techniques and reflective discussion are mixed depending on the issue.
For example, some people use cognitive-behavioural strategies for anxiety and mood, while others focus on attachment patterns or past experience. Common themes Jacqueline addresses include abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment difficulties, caregiving stress, codependency and communication problems. She also supports people through divorce, domestic violence, dissociation and family of origin concerns.
Sessions aim to develop clearer thinking, stronger coping strategies and improved emotional awareness. Jacqueline helps people identify manageable steps and build skills that fit day-to-day life. Her style is warm, steady and practical, centred on the client’s goals and pace.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Attachment-based work looks at how early connections affect current relationships and emotional patterns. It helps people understand trust, closeness and repeated difficulties in relationships and can be useful for attachment issues, abandonment and family of origin concerns.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours. It offers clear, practical techniques for anxiety, low mood and stress and is often used alongside other approaches for short-term goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jacqueline will work with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and comfort. That collaborative planning means techniques can change as progress is made and new priorities emerge.
Online therapy offers flexibility and a range of ways to connect. Video calls suit deeper face-to-face conversations, phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or work better when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging allow for brief reflections or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work and family commitments and to keep continuity when travel or location would otherwise be a barrier.
