About Jaime
Jaime Van Weede is a counsellor who works from the Dartington Estate in South Devon. She holds NCPS accreditation and has three years of counselling experience. Jaime aims to create a calm space where people can talk about what matters most to them. Many come with stress, anxiety or panic-related worries and she offers a steady, listening presence.
Jaime starts from a person-centred way of working, so early sessions focus on what the client wants and how they are feeling in the moment. As therapy progresses she draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to help unpick patterns of thinking that keep anxiety and panic cycling. She also uses mindfulness practices and some Gestalt ideas to bring attention to present-moment experience.
Sessions are shaped around the individual. Some people use a handful of meetings to tackle a specific problem. Others choose longer-term support to work through deeper issues like trauma, grief or relationship difficulties. Jaime checks in regularly to make sure the pace and direction suit the person in front of her.
She has a particular interest in neurodiversity arising from personal and family experience, and from work with young people. Jaime is familiar with issues linked to ADHD, attachment and social difference, and she listens without judgement when those topics come up.
Jaime is a member of the BACP and holds an enhanced DBS and a Level 3 certificate in Safeguarding. Her practice is based in the United Kingdom and sessions are carried out in English.
How Jaime’s approaches translate to online therapy
Jaime uses a person-centred way of working that keeps the client’s experience at the heart of sessions. This means early meetings focus on listening, understanding what feels difficult, and agreeing the pace and goals together.She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to help identify thinking and behaviour patterns that maintain anxiety and panic. CBT offers practical exercises and simple experiments you can try between sessions to reduce symptoms. Mindfulness therapy is used alongside these methods to build attention to the present moment and to reduce repeated worry and rumination.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jaime will discuss options with the person she is working with and adapt techniques to suit their needs, goals and preferences rather than imposing a single method. This helps shape a plan that feels manageable and relevant.
Practical benefits of remote work should be checked before booking, as specific session formats are not listed in the biography. Many people find online or remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Confirm current session options with Jaime when you arrange your first meeting to ensure they fit your routine and needs.
