About Jacqueline

Jacqueline Carter- Brown is a psychotherapist and counsellor who helps adults navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strain and other challenges. She works with people facing trauma, grief, low self-esteem, addiction and issues linked to intimacy and family dynamics. Jacqueline’s approach aims to make difficult conversations feel manageable and focused on what matters to the client.

She brings 21 years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. Her style is calm, reflective and authentic. Sessions are shaped around each person’s goals, pace and day-to-day needs rather than a fixed programme.

Jacqueline draws on psychodynamic methods to look at how past experiences shape present feelings and patterns. She also uses trauma-focused techniques to support recovery after abuse or distressing events. Solution-focused ideas help keep work practical and oriented toward measurable changes.

In the room she prioritises respect, sensitivity and straightforward listening. People can expect clear, gentle feedback and help spotting repeated patterns that cause pain. Conversations can cover topics such as attachment, abandonment, body image and family of origin issues.

Jacqueline holds BACP registration, which denotes membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients, with arrangements agreed when booking.

How Jacqueline’s approaches translate to online therapy

Jacqueline uses psychodynamic work to help people see how earlier relationships shape current feelings and behaviour, which can be useful when tackling repeating patterns. Trauma-focused methods are used to support recovery from abuse or deeply distressing events by pacing work and focusing on stabilisation and processing.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Jacqueline will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person’s history, needs and goals, and she adjusts the balance of exploration and practical work as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm available session formats when booking because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a workday. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video or who need less bandwidth at certain times. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt their methods to remote sessions so that exploration of attachment, trauma processing and solution-focused steps remain possible by phone or video when agreed.
