About Jack
Jack English helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and depression. He supports those coping with life changes, addiction, relationship and family issues, trauma and grief. Jack also works with concerns around intimacy, parenting, career pressures and feelings of isolation.
Jack draws on ten years of professional experience and a BA (Hons) degree. He practises Person-Centred counselling and uses practical methods from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Solution-Focused work where helpful.
Background and approach
His style is direct and down-to-earth, with little jargon and an emphasis on clear, practical steps. Jack spent a decade in the British Army, including frontline deployments. Those years shaped a resilient, no-nonsense way of relating that some clients find useful when dealing with difficult situations.
He aims to meet people where they are and to walk alongside them rather than telling them what to do. Sessions focus on the person’s goals and strengths. Conversations can cover thinking patterns, problem-solving strategies and ways to manage strong emotions.
Where past trauma is relevant, he uses Trauma-Focused approaches alongside supportive, person-centred listening. Jack is registered with BACP and NCPS. He works from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English.

How Jack works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses short, practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and to reduce anxiety, low mood and anger. Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jack will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That discussion can happen in early sessions and be adjusted as things progress.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the exact online options before booking. Online working can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by cutting travel time or allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also make it simpler to keep momentum between appointments by using agreed exercises and follow-up tasks that fit into everyday routines.
