About Jamie
Jamie Longson is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom. He combines a straightforward, practical style with a warm, non-judgemental presence to help people move through stress, anxiety and life changes. He is a father of two and brings that everyday perspective into sessions.
His earlier training in sport science and sport psychology influences his method. He helps people spot unhelpful patterns and set realistic, achievable goals. Small steps and steady progress are the focus rather than dramatic overnight change.
Background and approach
Jamie blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural therapy, so sessions include listening alongside practical tools. That means there is space to be heard and room to try techniques that reduce unhelpful thinking. He alternates guiding the session and following the person’s lead, depending on need.
Typical concerns he addresses include anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting and family stress, grief, low self-esteem and career worries. He also supports people dealing with abandonment and attachment issues, body image, caregiver strain, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Sessions can involve mapping patterns, practising new responses, and celebrating small gains.
Jamie aims to tailor the work to each person’s story and pace, keeping goals practical and manageable. He invites straightforward conversations about what is working and what needs to change.

Approaches Jamie lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is more structured and practical. It looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, unhelpful patterns in relationships, and coping with change.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then agree a way of working together. That might be mainly listening at first, a mix of listening and CBT tools, or shifting between styles as needs change.
Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when a fuller conversation is helpful. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, step-by-step exercises and people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping the focus on practical, collaborative work.
