About me
Hi, my name is Jackie Barlow MBACP I am a Person Centred counsellor and a member of the BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists). I offer a safe and confidential space where you can talk openly about what ever is troubling you. I work with individuals and couples, both face to face and online. Having someone truly listen to you can help you to make sense of things and can really make a difference.
Life can feel overwhelming at times. Counselling can help you to understand your thoughts and feelings, and find a way forward that feels right for you.
Although I work with a wide range of issues, I have a particular interest in relationships, self-esteem and work related stress. My approach is tailored to you as an individual.
Choosing a counsellor is a personal decision. Its important that you feel comfortable. I offer a free short meeting or phone call. There`s no obligation and you can ask any questions and decide if I may be the right person to support you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I studied and gained my diploma in Therapeutic Counselling at North Warwickshire and South Leicestershire College. I have regular supervision for ethical practice and undertake regular CPD in line with BACP guidelines to enhance my practice. I have worked with male survivors of sexual abuse and rape, both historically and recently. I also have experience working with clients whose lives are affected by cancer, be this personally, or by family or friends.
I have worked with many presenting issues, such as trauma, feelings of guilt or shame, childhood and adult sexual and physical abuse, illness, bereavement, cancer and anticipatory grief to name but a few. My special interest is in relationship/ couples counselling .
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
