About Jamie

Jamie Cargill is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. He works in a down-to-earth way and aims to make the first steps into counselling less daunting. Jamie offers warm, respectful support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship struggles and LGBT matters among other concerns.

He uses a client-centred approach to make conversations feel genuinely about the person in the room. That means sessions focus on what matters to the client and on listening without judgement. He also draws on solution-focused techniques to help identify small, practical steps that can change day-to-day life.

Jamie tailors the pace and style of counselling to each person. He will explore thoughts, feelings and behaviours and work with clients to clarify what they want from therapy. If someone is unsure what they want, he helps them start by choosing manageable priorities and building from there.

His background includes supporting people through issues such as trauma, addictions, self-esteem and coping with life changes, including coping with natural or human-caused disaster. He also addresses areas like intimacy, body image, gender dysphoria and first responder concerns when they are relevant to the client.

Jamie is registered with BACP and NCPS. Sessions are offered in English and he explains how the counselling process works at the first meeting so clients feel comfortable about what happens next.

How these approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening carefully and following the client's lead. In practice this means the counsellor offers a respectful, non-judgemental space and responds to what the client brings up, helping them find their own understanding and priorities.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable changes. It looks for what already works and builds short-term goals and practical steps that can reduce stress and improve daily routines.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss options with the client, use their input about goals and preferences, and adapt the way sessions proceed so it fits what the person needs most.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, such as arranging sessions around work or caregiving. It can also allow shorter check-ins when those are helpful, or sessions that do not require being on camera if that suits the client. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions preserve continuity of care when travel or schedules are difficult, while still allowing a collaborative therapeutic process.
