Jacqueline "Jackie" Farrant, BACP

Jacqueline "Jackie" Farrant understands that taking the first step toward counselling can feel difficult, and she works to create a calm, welcoming space that helps clients feel at ease. She encourages exploration of concerns and offers support and practical guidance so individuals can find solutions or develop better ways of coping with difficult feelings and situations.

Jackie is a qualified, BACP-registered UK counsellor - BACP denotes registration with a recognised professional counselling association in the United Kingdom - and brings over five years of professional experience to her practice. She has supported people facing stress and anxiety, depression, trauma including rape and sexual abuse, and those managing grief and loss. She also helps clients address motivation challenges, low self-esteem, lack of confidence, and the pressures of life changes.

Jackie’s practice is grounded in the belief that each person is the expert on their own life and that they possess inner strengths to work through the issues that trouble them. Her role is to provide understanding, encouragement, and practical support to empower clients as they find ways forward.

Client-Centered Support Delivered Online

Jackie works from a client-centered approach, focusing on empathy, attentive listening, and supporting clients to find their own solutions. This way of working prioritises the person’s own perspective and can be especially helpful for stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and adapting to life changes because it encourages self-discovery and personal agency.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Jackie approaches this collaboratively. She will listen to each client’s needs, goals, and preferences and help determine whether client-centered work fits or whether aspects of her support should be adapted to suit the individual.

Online therapy with Jackie is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular support from home or elsewhere, reduce travel time, and allow clients to choose the communication style that feels most helpful while working toward their therapeutic goals.
