About Jackie

Jackie Chester is a UK-licensed therapist who works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and challenges with motivation, self-esteem and confidence.

Client-Centered Care and Flexible Online Access

Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the heart of the work. It focuses on providing empathic listening, acceptance and support so clients can explore their feelings, identify personal goals and discover their own solutions. This approach is helpful for issues such as stress, anxiety, self-esteem and the emotional aftermath of trauma.

Jackie uses a collaborative style that invites people to guide the pace and focus of therapy. Finding the right approach is part of the process - she will work together with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and easier access to care. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules, to continue work while managing life changes, and to connect with licensed professionals from different locations. Jackie aims to make meaningful therapeutic work possible through the modality that suits each client best.
