Welcome, and thank you for visiting Counselling JCT.
Life can feel overwhelming, especially when you are navigating trauma, complex trauma, grief, stress, or simply feeling stuck. At Counselling JCT, I offer more than just therapy—I provide a compassionate partnership to support your healing and personal growth.
Compassion is at the core of my approach. Here, you will find a safe, empathetic space where your story is heard, your emotions are validated, and your journey is respected. Together, we will explore how to rediscover your inner resilience and build meaningful connections that empower lasting change.
Through trauma-informed care, we will guide your body’s natural ability to heal, integrating nervous system regulation, relational healing, and techniques for managing complex trauma. My approach blends cutting-edge therapeutic techniques with deep empathy, allowing you to move from overwhelm to peace and balance.
Whether you are in Cumbria, Lancashire, Manchester, or anywhere in the UK, I offer online therapy that is tailored to your unique needs. It is accessible, flexible, and personal, allowing you to focus on your healing from the comfort of your home.
About Me
Hi, I’m Jackie – Your Compassionate Trauma & Grief Therapist
Life can feel messy, overwhelming, and at times, it can seem like you are carrying the weight of the world alone. I understand that—and I am here to help. As a trauma-informed therapist with over 20 years of experience, I aim to create a safe space where you can feel free to share your story and start your healing journey.
I specialise in helping clients heal from trauma, complex trauma, and grief. I use approaches like Polyvagal Theory, nervous system regulation, and somatic techniques—not just because they are effective, but because they allow us to understand how your body holds stress and how we can guide it back to safety and balance. More than techniques, I bring warmth, authenticity, and a genuine belief in your healing capacity.
Together, we will walk this path at your pace, one compassionate step at a time.
"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of those depths."
