About Jacqueline
Jacqueline Leydon is a counsellor who focuses on helping people struggling with sleep and rest issues alongside stress, anxiety and other life challenges. She writes in a down-to-earth way and aims to make reaching out feel manageable for someone feeling overwhelmed. Jacqueline uses a person-centred style that keeps the client’s experience at the heart of sessions.
Jacqueline draws on eight years of practice and her own life experiences to understand problems such as ADHD, autism, trauma, addiction and bereavement. She says those experiences help her relate to difficulties with trust and with returning to restful sleep. In sessions she listens without judgment and helps people notice patterns that get in the way of rest and recovery.
Her approach is integrative, blending client-centred work with elements from cognitive behavioural therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy among other models. That means she focuses on what matters to each person, and uses practical steps alongside reflective conversation. Sessions can include helping to change unhelpful thinking, developing routines, or practising calm-focused skills.
Jacqueline holds BACP registration which indicates adherence to professional standards. She works in the United Kingdom and offers support in English. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns, including relationships, parenting, anger, career changes and sleep problems.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Jacqueline uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred work as core parts of her practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and supports choosing actions that reflect personal values. Client-centred work focuses on empathic listening and helping a person feel understood, which is useful for issues like sleep disturbance and stress.The right approach is something the therapist and client decide together. Jacqueline aims to explore what matters to the person and then try methods that match their goals and comfort. That means practical steps may be blended with reflective conversation as needed.
Please check the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific online delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits can help people try strategies for better rest and coping within their everyday routines.
