Jaquetta Trueman, BACP

Jaquetta Trueman is a BACP-registered counselling psychotherapist with 15 years of experience supporting adults through difficult life chapters. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental presence for people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what comes next, and she focuses on helping them slow down, reconnect with themselves, and find clearer direction.

Her work is grounded in an integrative, humanistic approach that draws on Client-Centered and Existential therapies. She has also trained in Mindfulness techniques, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS), allowing her to tailor sessions to each person rather than applying one fixed method. This flexibility means therapy can respond to someone’s immediate struggles as well as longer-standing patterns.

In practice, Jaquetta supports exploration of thoughts, emotions, and behavioural patterns with curiosity and compassion. She helps people consider where those patterns may have come from and how they are showing up now, without imposing answers or advice. Whether someone is facing loss, trauma, transitions, anxiety, or a loss of direction, her approach aims to rebuild clarity, confidence, and self-understanding. BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom.

Therapeutic approaches for online care and connection

Jaquetta works with approaches that translate well to remote sessions and aim to meet people where they are. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping individuals notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with personal values - it can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a compassionate, non-directive relationship in which the therapist supports the person to explore their own solutions and build self-understanding - it suits those seeking a gentle, respectful space to process concerns. Internal Family Systems (IFS) helps people understand and relate to different parts of themselves, making it a helpful option for those working with inner conflict, trauma responses, or complex emotional patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Jaquetta takes a collaborative stance. She will work with each person to identify which methods feel most appropriate for their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with Jaquetta can take place by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy lives, mobility constraints, or those who prefer remote contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy into routines and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible.
