Hi, I'm Jack,
I am credentialed in the UK with 10 years of professional work experience. I've come from being a British Army, Desert Rat, Front Line War Veteran to becoming a Person Centred counsellor with a BA (Hons) degree.
It's fair to say I'm not your stereotypical counsellor/Therapist, I'm straight talking and passionate about helping people with whatever issue they may be facing, I don't judge people and have had my own challenges to overcome, hence becoming a counsellor/therapist.
I've worked as a Counsellor and as a Support Worker for several charities/companies for several years and have a proven track record. I've had the honour to work with people of all backgrounds ranging from, War Veterans of all ages struggling with an array of issues to young people in the care system.
Whatever the issue, background, gender or age, I'm here for to listen, I'm here for YOU.
I have experience in helping clients with anger management, motivation, mental health, self esteem, and confidence and many other issues. I believe that you are the writer of your own story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started and I look forward to working with you.
