About me
Jackson Psychology Services is focused on providing high-quality psychological services. We offer specialist interventions/therapy to help improve emotional wellbeing and mental health. We hope to help you achieve your goals, improve your relationships and reduce distress.
I am a warm, sensitive and personable Clinical Psychologist who has many years of experience working with people who have struggled with a range of difficulties. I am an experienced therapist and can use a range of therapy models to help you improve your emotional wellbeing, relationships and overall ability to function better. These include CBT, EMDR and a number of other therapies, which we can discuss more when we meet.
I am based in TN18 but can work with anyone from any area as I am working via Zoom. I also have several other psychologists working with me who have a range of expertise. If you are interested in finding out more about how we may be able to help you, please contact me (Danielle Jackson).
I also offer adult ADHD assessments - POA.
Training, qualifications & experience
Finding the right psychologist can feel daunting — especially when you're already carrying something heavy. I hope this gives you a real sense of who I am and how I work, so you can decide whether I might be the right fit for you.
I'm Danielle Jackson, a Clinical Psychologist with nearly 20 years of experience working with people through some of the most difficult chapters of their lives. I'm chartered by the British Psychological Society (BPS) and registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).
I would describe myself as warm, personable and direct — someone who takes your difficulties seriously without losing sight of your strengths. I work hard to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, not judged, and where there is room for both honesty and hope.
**What I specialise in**
My particular areas of specialism are trauma, bereavement, perinatal and maternal mental health — supporting people through the psychological impact of infertility, pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood, including:
— Perinatal (baby) loss: miscarriage, stillbirth, abortion, SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome), neonatal death, termination for medical reasons (TFMR), and ectopic pregnancy
— Prolonged Grief Disorder following baby loss
— Birth trauma and PTSD
— Postnatal depression and perinatal anxiety
— Subsequent pregnancy anxiety after loss
I also work with a broad range of difficulties including trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD, panic, phobias, low self-esteem, sleep problems, anger, relationship difficulties, and work-related stress.
**How I work**
I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. I draw on a wide range of evidence-based models — including EMDR, Trauma-Focused CBT, Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Prolonged Grief Disorder Therapy (PGDT) and Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) — and work collaboratively with you to find the approach that fits your needs and goals.
I am trained and qualified to practice Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), which is particularly effective for trauma and grief.
Above all, I believe the relationship between therapist and client is at the heart of meaningful change. I bring warmth, clinical rigour, and nearly two decades of experience to every session.
**My background**
I have worked across the NHS in specialist mental health services, inpatient settings, GP surgeries, and forensic services — experience that has given me genuine depth and range as a clinician. I work with individuals including children and adolescents, and my practice is inclusive and affirming across gender identity, culture, and family structure.
I offer sessions online. For more information about Jackson Psychology Services and the wider team, visit www.jacksonpsychologyservices.co.uk
Taking the first step is often the hardest part. I'd encourage you to get in touch — even just to ask a question.

Free initial consultation - please get in touch for a free initial consultation to think about next steps together and ask any questions you might have.
Therapy sessions are 50 minutes long and cost £145. We are registered with some health insurance providers. Other psychology services are charged at different rates to those quoted above. I am also available for supervision.

Length of therapy can vary depending on the problem and type of therapy being used, however many people can start to see benefits after 3-6 sessions. This is affected by severity, individual differences and other factors.

Further information
**Research & academic work**
Alongside my clinical practice, I have an active research background. I have published in peer-reviewed academic journals and presented my work at national and international conferences. My research interests include spiritual and anomalous experiences, and cultural factors that shape help-seeking behaviour in mental health — particularly within marginalised and forensic populations.
**Specialist qualifications**
I hold a qualification in Achieving Best Evidence (ABE) interviewing, enabling me to conduct specialist police interviews with victims of sexual abuse. This reflects the breadth of my forensic and trauma experience and my commitment to working with some of the most underserved people in the system.
**Clinical supervision**
I offer clinical supervision to qualified and trainee psychologists and therapists, drawing on nearly 20 years of experience across NHS, forensic, and specialist perinatal settings. If you are looking for a supervisor with depth of experience in trauma, perinatal mental health, or cross-cultural practice, I would be glad to hear from you.
