About Jack

Jack English is a straight-talking counsellor who focuses on stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and depression. He helps people cope with life changes, addictions, relationship and family problems, trauma, grief and intimacy issues. He also supports practical concerns like parenting and career pressures.

Jack brings ten years of professional experience to his work and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. Jack uses a person-centred way of working, which means he listens and follows the client's lead.

Background and approach

He avoids jargon and keeps language clear and direct. Sessions are conversational but purposeful, with attention to what matters most to the client. He also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going.

These are used in simple, everyday ways to test ideas and try small changes between sessions. Solution-focused tools are used when clients want practical steps and quicker relief. Jack's background includes ten years of service in the British Army, including frontline deployments.

That experience shaped a resilient, down-to-earth style and an ability to work with people from varied backgrounds. He says he meets people where they are and walks alongside them rather than directing them. People often come for help with specific issues such as abandonment, communication problems, divorce, addiction, guilt and shame, impulsivity or isolation.

Jack aims to help people uncover strengths and build on them, whether the goal is better coping, clearer choices or improved relationships.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Jack's approaches work online

Jack works predominantly in a person-centred way, which means sessions focus on the client's experience and priorities. He listens closely, follows the client's lead and offers support that fits each person's pace and goals. He also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help identify unhelpful thought patterns and try small behavioural experiments. These tools can be useful for anxiety, low mood and managing strong emotions by breaking problems into manageable steps. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jack will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan together based on the client's needs and preferences. The process is collaborative and can change over time if required. Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is low or cameras are not wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, note-taking or people who prefer typing to speaking. These options give flexibility for different schedules and situations, and they let people try different formats to see what helps them make steady progress.
