Jaquetta Trueman , BACP

Jaquetta Trueman is a BACP-accredited counselling psychotherapist with 15 years of experience supporting adults through challenging life moments. She offers a calm, attentive presence for people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what comes next, providing a nonjudgmental space to explore thoughts and emotions at a manageable pace.

Her practice is rooted in an integrative, humanistic orientation that places the person at the centre of the work. She draws primarily on Client-Centered, Existential, and Gestalt philosophies, and has extended her skills with training in Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). This range allows her to tailor sessions to each person’s needs rather than applying a fixed formula.

Jaquetta believes that difficult experiences such as loss, trauma, and major transitions can unsettle a sense of direction and lead to anxiety, disconnection, or uncertainty. Working together, she helps people examine how patterns and beliefs developed, notice how they appear in daily life, and explore practical ways to move toward greater clarity and self-understanding. She explains that BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom.

Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Jaquetta draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters most to them and take small, values-driven steps even when difficult thoughts or emotions are present. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where avoidance has become limiting. She also works from a Client-Centered perspective, offering an empathic, non-directive stance that helps people feel heard and supported while they explore their own responses and choices. For clients interested in internal dynamics, Internal Family Systems (IFS) provides a way to understand different parts of the self and how they interact, which can be helpful for trauma, relationship patterns, and self-criticism.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Jaquetta collaborates with each person to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals often blend techniques, and she will work with clients to adapt the pace and style of sessions as trust and insight grow.

Online therapy with Jaquetta is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, mobility limits, or varying comfort with in-person meetings. These options make it easier to access ongoing support, maintain continuity during life changes, and choose the format that feels most manageable at any moment.
