About Jamie

Jamie Pepper is a counsellor who helps people facing anxiety, stress and panic-related problems. They also support people dealing with trauma, relationship strain, low self-esteem, grief and difficulties around gender identity. Jamie works from a person-centred view and aims to create a calm, respectful space where someone can talk about what is happening for them.

Jamie uses Internal Family Systems ideas alongside person-centred work to look at different parts of a person’s experience. That can help when feelings seem to come from conflicting places inside you. They listen first, then help people decide what to focus on and how long to work together.

In sessions Jamie talks in everyday language and avoids clinical jargon. They encourage people to notice what matters most to them and to try small, practical steps between sessions. The approach is collaborative - the person and Jamie set goals together and check progress as they go.

Jamie has four years of experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. They work with a wide range of concerns including addiction, bipolar, eating and parenting issues, ageing and attachment difficulties. Sessions are offered in English and Jamie accepts international clients.

If someone wants to begin, Jamie asks them to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. From there, scheduling is done according to the therapist’s availability and the subscription model used for sessions.

How these approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping people find their own solutions. Online sessions using this approach centre the person’s experience and priorities and aim to help them feel heard and understood.

Trauma-Focused Therapy aims to address the impact of traumatic experiences through careful, paced work. In an online setting this can involve talking through memories, noticing triggers and practising grounding or coping strategies between sessions.

Internal Family Systems treats difficult feelings as parts that have their own roles. Online sessions can name and explore these parts, helping people understand internal conflicts and try new ways of relating to themselves.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and will help decide which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and can change as therapy progresses.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people keep sessions in familiar surroundings and join from different locations when that helps them manage attendance.
