Jack English

I offer online counselling sessions via secure video or phone. Sessions are available to clients across the UK and overseas.

My working hours are Monday to Friday from 7am to 7pm, and Saturday mornings from 8am to 12pm, providing flexible appointment times to fit around work and daily life.

I provide 30-minute check-ins, 1-hour standard sessions, and 2-hour extended sessions, depending on your needs and the depth of work required.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss what might work best for you, please get in touch through the BACP contact system.

I’m a person-centred counsellor offering online counselling sessions across the UK and overseas. My approach is straightforward, honest, and focused on helping you find real, lasting change — without jargon or judgement.

I work with adults facing a wide range of issues, including anxiety, trauma, PTSD, depression, relationship challenges, loss, and low self-esteem. I also support clients who feel stuck, burnt out, or unsure where to turn next.

Before becoming a counsellor, I served on the front line in the British Army, which taught me the value of resilience, authenticity, and understanding people from all walks of life. I bring that same grounded approach into my counselling — real-world experience, empathy, and a no-nonsense way of working.

In our sessions, the focus is on you. I’ll listen, challenge when needed, and help you work through what’s holding you back at your own pace. Whether you need a space to offload, make sense of things, or start making changes, I’ll meet you where you are.

I offer video and telephone sessions Monday to Friday, with additional Saturday mornings available for flexibility.

At Jack English Counselling, I offer a space that’s honest, supportive, and focused on getting you where you need to be. I believe counselling should be straightforward and practical — a place to talk openly, feel heard, and start building real change.

My sessions are online, held securely by video or phone, making counselling accessible wherever you are in the UK or overseas. You don’t need to travel or fit around rigid schedules — you can talk from the comfort of your own space.

Every client is different, so I don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach. I work person-centred, meaning you lead the pace and focus, while I bring the skills and perspective to help you see things more clearly. When needed, I draw on other approaches such as CBT and DBT tools to support your progress.

I work with adults from all backgrounds and have particular experience in trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, anger management, relationship difficulties, and men’s mental health. Many of my clients come to me after struggling to connect with traditional counselling styles — they often say they value my direct, down-to-earth way of working.

My goal is to help you understand yourself better, manage what’s in front of you, and take the next steps towards feeling more in control of your life.

Booking your first session is simple — you can do it directly through my website by choosing the session length (30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours) and method that suits you best (video or phone).

Your first session is about getting a sense of how we’ll work together and whether my approach feels right for you. There’s no pressure or commitment beyond that — it’s a chance for you to talk openly and see if counselling with me feels like the right fit.

I don’t use formal assessments or long forms — just an honest, straightforward conversation to help you start moving in the right direction.
