About Jack
Jack English helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression and big life changes. He also supports those dealing with addiction, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and grief. Jack is straightforward and calm, and he aims to build a practical, down-to-earth working relationship with each person he meets.
Jack trained to counselling level and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. He has ten years of experience in helping people make changes and cope with difficult feelings.
Background and approach
His background includes long service in the British Army, which shaped a resilient, practical approach to problems. In sessions Jack keeps language plain and avoids clinical jargon. He focuses on what a person wants to achieve and works at a steady pace.
Conversations often centre on understanding what is getting in the way and trying small, workable steps to shift things. Jack draws on client-centred ways of working alongside cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused ideas. He also has experience addressing trauma and its effects.
This mix helps tailor the work to the issue and to the person’s immediate needs. People come to Jack for help with specific problems such as parenting stresses, career worries, first responder strain, difficulties with intimacy, or complicated feelings after loss or separation. He aims to help people notice strengths they may have lost sight of and to find practical ways forward.
Sessions are collaborative and respectful. Jack encourages clear goals and regular review so progress can be measured and adjusted as needed.

Online support
He also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT helps people test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments to reduce anxiety, manage mood or tackle addictive patterns.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Jack will discuss what feels most useful and adapt the mix of approaches to fit a person's needs, goals and preferences. The direction of the work is agreed together and reviewed regularly.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls let people use body language and longer conversation. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when less bandwidth is available. Live chat and text-based messaging can fit around busy days and allow quick, written check-ins between longer sessions.
These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family or travel schedules and help people keep momentum in their progress.
