Jamie has been excellent for me. I've been able to talk about a lot of different issues and feel a whole lot better and less alone after. Whilst we might not always find the answer to some things, being able to discuss and verbalise issues in an environment that cultivates openness certainly helps a tonne.

Hello, my name is Jamie and I am a qualified counsellor in the UK with over seven years of professional work experience. As a counsellor I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, LGBTQ+ related issues, relationship issues, & coping with grief and loss, however, these are just some of the areas of counselling that I have experience in working with, as every client raises different issues and challenges I feel it would be impossible to list them all.
As a counsellor, I provide warm, confidential and non-judgemental short and long-term counselling for individuals from all walks of life. I am down-to-earth and passionate about my work.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Counselling provides a safe and confidential space for you to talk to a trained professional about your issues and concerns. As your counsellor, I will help you explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviours so you can develop a better understanding of yourself and of others.
I realise that taking that first step towards help by contacting a counsellor can be daunting and may cause feelings of anxiety, particularly if you haven't had counselling before. The reality is that we all need help at some time, so I would encourage you to take that first step if you can.
If you decide to start counselling, my aim will be to put you at ease in the first session. We will discuss key aspects of the therapeutic relationship, for example, maintaining confidentiality, as well as exploring in more detail what it is that's brought you to therapy. If you know what it is you'd like to achieve out of counselling we will explore that too. If you don't know, that's absolutely fine; clients don't always explicitly know what they want to achieve. Sometimes it's as simple as 'feeling normal again'. If there are lots of different things going on in your life, we can look at what you might want to work on first.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
