Jill Malcolm, BACP

Jill Malcolm is a BACP-registered counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety and relationship strain. She offers a calm presence and plainspoken support for people trying to sort out self-esteem, motivation and intimacy-related worries.

Jill works to make sessions feel open and non-judgemental. She encourages people to talk about what matters to them and to try small changes that can make daily life easier. Many clients bring grief, eating concerns, or challenges linked to ADHD, and Jill treats these topics with patience and practical focus.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Attachment-based and client-centred ideas shape how she attends to relationships and emotional safety in the room. Jill keeps language simple and aims for clear, achievable steps between sessions.

Jill has three years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and holds BACP as her listed credential. She is open to working with international clients and conducts sessions in English. People can expect a collaborative conversation about goals and next steps on first contact.

To begin, Jill asks people to reflect on what they want to change and what feels most urgent. From there she helps build a practical plan - often combining short-term coping ideas with longer-term work on core patterns and relationships.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting caught up in them, then take actions that match what matters most. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and problems with motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early interactions affect current trust and closeness; it can be useful for intimacy and relationship tension.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jill will explore your goals and preferences and recommend which ideas to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses, so clients shape the focus together with the therapist.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people work with a therapist who is located elsewhere, which may broaden choice when seeking the right fit.
