English-speaking psychotherapy for the Cayman Islands
The Cayman Islands hold one of the highest concentrations of high-earning professionals anywhere in the world: hedge fund and fund-administration staff, captive-insurance specialists, offshore lawyers and accountants, many of them expatriates who have relocated to George Town and Seven Mile Beach for the work and the tax regime. It is a demanding, transient, hard-driving environment, and specialist English-speaking psychotherapy with real clinical depth is scarce on-island. Dr Philippe Jacquet offers it online across the Cayman Islands, with the same clinical depth as at his Harley Street practice.
A private, highly specialised practice
This is a private, highly specialised practice, not general counselling. The expertise is consultant level: a Doctorate of Professional Practice, Hazelden training and more than 20 years of EMDR, for complex presentations such as addiction, eating disorders, trauma and executive burnout. No waiting list, free choice of therapist, and absolute confidentiality.
Global health cover deserves a globally trained clinician
An international private health insurance plan, the kind of global cover offered by insurers such as Bupa Global, Cigna and AXA, is among the best cover in the world, and it exists to give you access to genuinely specialist care, not a generalist. That care should be trained to the same standard. Dr Jacquet’s education spans three countries: addiction training at the Hazelden Foundation in the United States, a Master’s and a Doctorate of Professional Practice in the United Kingdom, and executive coaching at ESSEC in Paris, one of Europe’s leading business schools. Add more than 20 years of EMDR, and this is exactly the consultant-level, highly specialised care your cover is meant for. If you hold the best cover, use it for support that matches it.
Dr Jacquet works with major private health insurers, including Bupa, Cigna, AXA and Aviva. Ask about your cover when you get in touch, and check whether your policy is an international plan.
The pressures of a small, high-performing island
Cayman’s strengths are also its stressors. The work is intense and the seasons are punishing, from year-end fund deadlines to hurricane season. The community is small, so professional and social lives overlap and privacy feels thin, which makes it harder to admit that something is wrong. And the social calendar runs on alcohol, so the drinking that follows the deal can quietly cross a line while a career keeps flourishing. Distance from family, the transience of who comes and goes, and the pressure to keep performing all take a toll that rarely shows at work.
These are the presentations this practice treats, discreetly and online: the drinking that has stopped being social, the control of food and the body when everything else feels beyond control, the anxiety masked by performance, and the burnout underneath the success. Nothing is shared with an employer, firm or third party without your explicit consent.

Yes. Many professionals in Cayman are covered by global private health plans. Dr Jacquet works with major insurers including Bupa, Cigna, AXA and Aviva. Ask about your cover when you get in touch, and check whether your policy is an international plan.
What do you treat?
Addiction, eating disorders, trauma, anxiety and depression, and executive burnout, particularly among the funds, insurance, legal and professional community.
