Jack Kirton is a counsellor and psychotherapist who helps people find clarity, confidence and practical ways forward. He brings five years of professional practice and works with adults who want to handle stress, anxiety, relationship problems and life changes more effectively. Jack uses plain, direct conversation to identify what matters most to each person.

He listens first and then offers straightforward tools and actions to try. Sessions aim to be focused and practical while also leaving space to be heard.

Background and approach

He trained in client-centred and cognitive approaches and applies mindfulness and emotionally-focused ideas when they suit the situation. That means talking through unhelpful thinking, practising present-moment awareness, and looking at how emotions shape close relationships. Jack has experience offering therapy in person and remotely.

He runs sessions by video call, phone, live chat and text messaging, and tailors the format to a person’s needs and lifestyle. His work often concentrates on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem and addiction. He also supports people dealing with grief, sleep or eating problems, career transitions, bipolar and depression, parenting pressures, and ADHD.

Clients may also bring concerns such as attachment or abandonment, chronic illness and pain, body image, commitment and communication problems, or compassion fatigue. Jack aims to help people turn insight into action and move toward clearer goals.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating space to be heard and understood. In practice this means the counsellor follows the person’s lead, reflects back what is said, and helps the person find their own solutions; it is useful for building self-awareness and confidence.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Online CBT often involves identifying unhelpful thinking, testing new behaviours and practising small changes between sessions to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy pays attention to emotional patterns in close relationships. It helps people notice how emotions influence interactions and try different ways of expressing needs and attachment, which can improve intimacy and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and match methods to a person’s goals, needs and preferences in a collaborative way. That means trying things, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection and ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to attend regularly and work the sessions around life commitments.
