About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Branfield is a counsellor and hypnotherapist with eight years of experience supporting people in the United Kingdom. She works with adults and young people on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem. Jacqueline uses a warm, inclusive style that aims to put people at ease from the first session.
She practises an integrative approach, drawing on several methods to fit individual needs. That might include attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns, cognitive behavioural techniques to manage unhelpful thoughts, or mindfulness to reduce overwhelm.
Background and approach
Hypnotherapy can also be used where appropriate alongside talking therapies. Jacqueline has experience as a school counsellor and as a consulting therapeutic practitioner, which informs how she supports people across different stages of life. She describes her work as neuro-diverse informed, adapting sessions so each person feels respected and understood.
Sessions are personalised rather than one-size-fits-all. In sessions she focuses on soothing the nervous system and reducing overthinking. She encourages people to notice and challenge their inner critic and to practise self-compassion.
Practical tools and small steps are used to build steadier coping and clearer self-understanding. Jacqueline welcomes international clients and offers sessions in English. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk through worries at their own pace and gradually build the skills to feel more steady and confident.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Jacqueline draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural therapy to guide online work. Attachment-based approaches look at how past relationships shape current patterns and help people notice and change unhelpful relational habits. Cognitive behavioural therapy identifies thought and behaviour patterns that keep anxiety and low mood active and teaches practical ways to shift them.She also uses client-centred principles in sessions, which means the conversation is guided by the person's concerns and pace. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals together and try methods that feel helpful, adjusting as needed over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is an issue, live chat allows shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging suits people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments, or travel while maintaining continuity of care.
