Jack English helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger and low self-esteem. He supports those coping with depression, life changes, addiction, relationship problems and trauma. Jack also offers help for grief, intimacy concerns, parenting stresses and career uncertainty.

He describes himself as a straight-talking person-centred counsellor who keeps things down-to-earth. Jack prefers clear language and practical conversation over jargon. He encourages people to lead sessions while he provides steady support and reflection.

Background and approach

Jack trained to degree level and holds BACP and NCPS recognitions. He has 10 years of professional experience and brings that time to his work with clients. His style is resilient and pragmatic without being brusque.

In sessions he uses a mix of approaches including client-centred ways of listening, cognitive behavioural tools to spot and change unhelpful thoughts, solution-focused steps to set goals, and trauma-informed methods when past hurt needs attention. He aims to match the method to the problem rather than using one set way for everyone.

People can expect a calm, practical conversation that focuses on what they want to change. Jack helps clients break big problems into manageable steps and build on small successes. He invites honest feedback so therapy stays relevant and useful.

How Jack blends approaches for online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor reflects what a person says and helps them make sense of their own feelings, which can help with low self-esteem, relationship strain and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours, which can be useful for anxiety, anger and depression.

Jack treats finding the right approach as a shared task. He will talk through different methods and work with the client to decide what feels most helpful. The choice can change over time as needs and goals evolve.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow a fuller face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit around a busy day or use less data, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports shorter reflections between appointments. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
