my life and empowering my sense of self through her perceptive insights. She
helped me to understand my motivations and feelings about issues that had
perplexed me for most of my life. I Can’t thank her enough for all her help.

My sessions with Jacqueline were truly life enhancing. Her abilities as a professional support and prompt, using multiple techniques and approaches helped me explore patterns, thoughts and feelings I hadn't considered part of my story. Her human-centred practice and kind, witty nature meant each session was relaxed and I felt comfortable and safe.
I have, and will continue to recommend working with Jacqueline to anyone who will listen! I am truly grateful for her practice as a professional and carry my learnings and healing from our sessions everywhere I go.
