Jack English, BACP, NCPS

Jack English is a straight-talking, person-centred counsellor who blends down-to-earth practical support with a commitment to helping people move forward. His approach is shaped by a decade of service in the British Army, including frontline deployments with the Desert Rats, experiences that contributed to his resilient and pragmatic style of work. He holds a BA (Hons) degree and has built ten years of professional experience working with a wide range of people, from fellow veterans to young people navigating the care system.

Jack works from a person-centred perspective, which means he follows the client’s lead and focuses on creating an accepting, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their concerns. He avoids clinical jargon and aims to meet people exactly where they are, offering straightforward support for issues such as anger, self-esteem, confidence, and motivation.

In addition to his degree, Jack holds professional credentials listed as BACP and NCPS, which reflect his professional affiliations and training in counselling and psychotherapy. He believes that most people already hold strengths they can draw on, and his role is to help uncover and build on those strengths so clients can regain a sense of control over their stories.

Taking the first step into therapy can take courage, and Jack respects that choice. He offers a supportive, practical partnership intended to help people work through obstacles and move toward the changes they want to make.
