About

Jacqueline Selby is a therapist licensed in the United Kingdom and is currently based in Sydney, with over 15 years of professional experience in the field of mental health. She has supported hundreds of people across more than 50 countries.

Her therapeutic approach is warm, respectful, non-judgmental and compassionate. Jacqueline aims to be supportive and available, and she works as an ally alongside each person she sees. She practices Person-Centred psychotherapy, which holds that with the right core conditions and support people can make the changes needed to live a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Jacqueline tailors sessions and treatment plans to meet each client’s unique needs. She has experience working with adults of all ages on a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, overthinking, relationship issues, motivation, self-esteem and confidence, depression, LGBT-related issues, coping with significant life changes, feeling stuck, grief and loss, addictions, family and parenting matters, anger, career questions, and compassion fatigue.

In therapy she aims to build a trusted, working relationship where clients feel safe enough to explore their thoughts and feelings. Together she and the client prioritise worries and work in a solution-focused way so progress can be seen and areas of difficulty identified. Sessions may examine unhelpful patterns of behaviour and set out steps toward positive change. The counselling process is a journey that can move forwards and backwards over time, and Jacqueline remains present to support clients through those fluctuations.

Her usual practice days are Monday to Thursday, with an earlier finish on Friday. She does not generally work at weekends but will try to accommodate weekend sessions when needed. Messages sent outside scheduled appointments are typically checked once in the morning and once in the afternoon, sometimes more frequently, and are answered accordingly. Clients can book 45-minute live phone, video or chat sessions in advance via her schedule. She generally recommends a weekly session rhythm for the first four weeks, after which the plan can be reviewed.

Please note that this service is not suitable if you are in crisis or require immediate help. In a crisis situation Jacqueline advises contacting local emergency services.

If someone feels Jacqueline might be the right therapist for them and is ready to take the next step, she welcomes messages and looks forward to working together.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people ask whether remote counselling can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or managing life transitions, online therapy is often as effective as traditional face-to-face work.

One major benefit is flexibility - people can choose the mode of connection that suits them best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine and to access support from different locations.

Therapy delivered remotely is provided by licensed professionals, and clients can change therapists at any time if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. Online work supports many of the same therapeutic goals as in-person sessions and can be a practical, accessible way to get the help needed to move forward.
