About Jacob
Jacob Mason is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people handle stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and LGBT-related issues. He also supports those facing career questions, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and the challenges that come with bipolar disorder or major life changes.
Jacob aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak openly about painful or confusing feelings. Jacob uses a person-centred way of working that puts the individual’s experience at the centre of sessions.
Background and approach
He listens closely and mirrors back what he hears so people can gain clarity and feel understood. He also draws on solution-focused ideas to identify small, practical steps that make life more manageable. With three years of professional experience, Jacob holds BACP accreditation, which reflects a recognised counselling membership in the UK.
He combines active listening with practical problem-solving during sessions. This mix is useful when someone needs both emotional understanding and clear, short-term goals. Sessions are conversational and paced to the individual.
Jacob stays non-directive when someone wants to explore feelings, and more goal-directed when someone wants specific change-focused work. He welcomes open discussion about identity, intimacy, and difficult past experiences. People usually find the work straightforward and down-to-earth.
Jacob encourages curiosity about patterns of thought and behaviour, and supports steps towards better coping. He helps people notice what’s already working and build on it, rather than starting from scratch.

Approaches Jacob lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small goals. It looks at what people already do that helps and builds on those strengths to create change. This is helpful for stress, relationship problems and coping with life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will talk with the person about goals and preferences, then try ways of working that suit those needs. That choice is made together and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat makes short check-ins easier, and messaging suits ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and can help people fit support around work, care responsibilities or busy days.
