Jamie Pepper , BACP

Jamie Pepper is a counsellor who focuses on women's issues alongside a broad range of emotional concerns. They work with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and stress. Jamie also supports people facing gender dysphoria, addiction struggles, relationship and parenting strain, and career-related difficulty.

Sessions are person-centred and conversational. Jamie aims to make space for what matters to the individual and to listen without judgement. Conversations are shaped around the client’s goals so people leave each session with clear next steps or things to reflect on.

Jamie draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy to help when past events keep affecting day-to-day life. Internal Family Systems ideas are used to notice different parts of someone’s experience and how those parts interact. These approaches are offered alongside a client-centred stance that foregrounds the person’s own perspective.

With four years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Jamie has worked with diverse concerns including neurodiversity, attachment and caregiver stress. They aim to help people understand how their experiences shape feelings and behaviour so they can make more deliberate choices.

Jamie offers a flexible way of working. Clients set the pace and the focus. The emphasis is on practical steps and clearer thinking, not jargon, and on building coping skills that fit day-to-day life.

How Jamie's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective, offering a listening space where the client sets the agenda and the counsellor reflects and clarifies. This approach helps with stress, self-esteem and decision making by keeping the work tailored to what matters most to the individual.

Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at how past events affect current reactions and coping. In practice this can mean pacing sessions to process memories, developing grounding and emotion regulation skills, and working methodically to reduce distress linked to traumatic experiences.

Internal Family Systems helps people identify different parts of themselves and how those parts interact. Using IFS ideas online can support recognising inner conflicts, reducing self-criticism, and building kinder internal relationships that improve mood and resilience.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jamie will work with each person to choose or combine methods that match their goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls require less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day, while messaging or live chat can be used for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, caring duties, or travel.
