About Jamie
Jamie Longson is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom. He combines a straightforward, practical style with a warm, non-judgemental approach. Jamie is a father of two and often brings a down-to-earth, everyday perspective to the work.
He aims to help people feel heard and to make small, steady changes that add up over time. Jamie trained in sport science and sport psychology before moving into counselling. That background influences how he helps clients spot unhelpful patterns and set realistic goals.
Background and approach
He uses practical exercises alongside listening to support progress in day-to-day life. In sessions Jamie mixes client-centred counselling with cognitive behavioural techniques. Client-centred work means he gives space, listens closely, and follows the person's lead.
CBT brings structured tools to identify and change thoughts that keep someone stuck. His approach is collaborative and adaptable. Sometimes he will guide with exercises and tasks, and other times he will follow what the client wants to focus on.
The emphasis is on pacing the work to match each person's needs. Jamie often supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship concerns. He also works with issues like self-esteem, parenting strain, career worries and coping with life changes.
He aims to help people find clearer thinking and more manageable steps forward.

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
He also uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to offer clear, practical techniques for changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, repetitive negative thoughts and patterns that make daily life harder.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. Jamie will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together you set the pace and agree on tasks or exercises that fit your life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls are helpful when visual contact matters, phone sessions work well with limited bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect in writing between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
