Jamie Longson

Jamie Longson is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom. A Mancunian and father of two young boys, he brings a background in sport science and sport psychology to his practice. That training informs a pragmatic focus on spotting patterns, setting realistic goals, and noticing the small wins that accumulate into meaningful change. His listed areas of work include stress, anxiety, relationships, parenting, self esteem, depression, family difficulties, grief, intimacy-related issues, career concerns, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue.

Jamie blends Client-Centred Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. He creates a warm, non-judgemental space where the person is treated as the expert on their own life, while also offering practical CBT tools to explore and shift unhelpful thinking. He describes the working relationship as collaborative: sometimes he guides, sometimes he follows the client’s lead, and the client sets the pace. Jamie commits to listening without judgement, tailoring the work to each story, and continuing professional learning to refine his practice.
