“Jack has been an incredible support in my life. He helped me through so many difficult moments, and more importantly – he believed in me even when I didn’t believe in myself. That kind of support is rare and truly powerful.
His calm presence, thoughtful words, and genuine care made me feel seen and understood. I’ll always be grateful for everything he’s done for me. I’m writing this review because he truly deserves recognition for the amazing work he does.
Thank you so much, Jack.”
“I cannot recommend jack enough, he’s done everything I could expect from a therapist and more. He’s really opened my eyes to my situation and so far every time l’ve had a session, I’ve continued my day more positive so for that I’m grateful.”
“I served with Jack on operations in Iraq. Brave, tough, determined and highly motivated, he was always someone I could depend on. It therefore comes as no surprise that he is a highly competent counsellor – with the qualifications and experience to back it up. He is passionate about what he does; I have followed his journey and seen the effort and the dedication. He is authentic, true to himself and to those he serves, with a genuine desire to help – be you a war veteran or a youngster in care! Can’t recommend him highly enough.”
“Jack is in a unique position as a Councillor, being able to draw on vast experience he has learned from being in similar positions. He backs this up with the education and qualifications he has studied hard for.
Education, qualifications and experience which make him a very understanding Councillor whom I would recommend to and of my friends, family or acquaintances.”
“Jack is awesome – direct, crystal clear advise, to the point, brings great comparatives, helps clear the mind.
Makes you feel comfortable in the first 5 minutes and then it is smooth flowing – biggest thing he listens intently and analysis is almost real-time.
Thank you Jack for orienting me and my life in the right direction.”
“I have know jack for 19 yrs we served together in the military there is so much you could say about him and his kind heart and generosity to others
I would recommend his services to anyone whom is seeking help even just a friendly ear give his website a good look at you’ll be amazed at what he’s been through to come to this point in his life there is no better person to ask for help guidance or coaching as he’s been there done that got the T-shirt as they say I would 100% recommended him to you all whom are looking for that help
Jack is a true gentleman and good friend to all who know
So don’t just think do it’ll be the best decision you could make.”
“Absolutely brilliant! Thank you, he seems much better already!”
“My sessions with Jack came at a fairly critical point for me, and I am happy to say they’ve been incredibly helpful.
His direct but non-judgemental manner made hard topics easier to address head-on, which I really needed and appreciated. Jack also helped me navigate obstacles, I’m happier as a result. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.”
“Jack gave me hope that things could get better at my worst time, changed my attitude to many things that were negative in my life and helped me become more positive.”
“Thank you for your understanding, patience and empathy. I felt truly listened to for the first time in my life”
“Just wanted to say how much I appreciate everything. The conversations we had stick in my mind and help me through moments, especially after the year I’ve hed”
“Without the help and support of Jack I would never have survived these past 5 months. Jack has helped me through some very bad times. He made me aware of groups, introduced me to various people by means of support groups. Jack’s patience with me has helped me understand myself and look at things differently and with reason.”
“Credit to yourself too for getting me in a better place. As I was at my lowest ever! I will be checking in every so often as I think it’s good for the mind to keep on track.”
“I know I didn’t fully engage with counselling at the time, but I get it now and it saved my life. Thank you.”
“Our family, like so many others, has struggled during lockdown. Our teenage boys have struggled with anxiety, drug misuse, self-harm and suicidal thoughts. We have struggled with their aggressive behaviour towards ourselves and the home.
All of which have caused a breakdown in our family relationships. Jack has been helping us work through everything. He has spent time getting to know us all, our complex situation, building excellent relationships with our two teenagers, working with us as a family unit and on a 1:1 basis.
Setting goals for us to work towards and helping us reach them. He’s been right there with us when we’ve had to manage crisis situations.
Work is still ongoing but we have seen progress and change and that is down to Jack and his skills as a counsellor. He’s got so much experience, is so understanding and above all is incredibly supportive. If you are struggling, don’t wait, get in touch with Jack, he really can help and we cannot recommend him highly enough.”
“I’ve always considered myself to be a very strong independent woman, a person who held her family together until it all came crashing down and I couldn’t process my thoughts…
Jack is not your average perceived councillor he goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable, it’s like catching up with a friend everything is so relaxed to the extent I had my counselling sessions in my car as its where I felt most comfortable.
Jack helped me to find my way again and put the jigsaw of my life back together again and for that I can’t thank him enough.”
“I seem to have turned the corner, happier, more confident and back on track.
All down to you – Thanks.”
“Jack offers a very grounded, much needed reality check phone call to phone call. I feel what I say lands on thoughtful ears that aren’t simply there to listen but also to help me become a better person.”
“Jack has been so helpful in my time of need. He’s a great listener and gives great advice and has really helped shift my perspective on things in my life i am struggling with. He’s friendly, approachable and most of all honest. Thank you Jack”
“Hi Jack, great to meet you and thanks for sharing your experiences too, and for in a way making stuff a lot simpler and clearer, thanks for confronting me with myself! Look forward to speaking again next week, and thanks also for the slight run over very much”
“A very professional, empathetic and lovely person.”
“Jack has been very supportive and met me on my level very quickly. It’s been a huge relief to have him to talk to and to feel listened to and understood”
“Jack has been such an incredible pillar of support during my time of need. His care and advice have helped me in ways I can’t describe. Easy to talk to. He Is a great listener which allowed me to be completely honest in my sessions and work through what I needed to. Thank you Jack! Kieron”
“My sessions with Jack English have been brilliant.
He’s great at coming up with solution based ideas and has really supported me when I’ve been at my lowest. I’ve always been put off by cringe therapists, but Jack is nothing like that. He’s understanding, caring and speaks to you like a normal person. He helps you actually work through things in a way that makes sense. I couldn’t recommend him more”
“I really value the work we’ve done together – but I need to pause for now and get locked in on the goal. I’ll be in touch once things are a bit more stable as i think there are some topic i want to talk through with ypu. Thank you again for all your support so far It has been very good for me.
Especially during the more difficult period over the last couple months. I.just wanted you to know how much l appreciate the support”
“I booked my 17yr son into see Jack and was not disappointed. My son ended up opening up to him, started seeing things more positively and made massive progress. Jack helped him so much, I really didn’t think he would be able to either as my sons not a talker.
Thanks Jack.
100% recommend, he’s a really good guy and very good at his job!”
“Jack English is a straight talking, no nonsense chap. He listened to me voice what was going on in my life and helped me to put troubles into perspective. Setting a practice of focus on life’s practicalities has been key to finding balance and grouding. Thanks Jack!”
“Jack helped a close family member last year, for around 6 sessions and I can honestly say it changed his life. Jack is so down to earth and can relate to people of all ages, including teenagers who don’t necessarily want help, at first.
The help we got from Jack has been an absolute god send and I’d recommend anyone to go see him. Another thing too, Jack won’t keep taking your money for the sake of it either.
Thanks so much Jack, you have changed his path and he’s doing great. I’ll be forever grateful to you.”
“I have known Jack approx. 20+ years, seen him go through alot in his lifetime which would break most. He is reliable, honest and a loyal friend who would help at the drop of a phone call. if you need help or advice from someone with life experience and come out on top of poor situations then rest assured your looking in the right direction.”
“As a young man joining the British Army, Jack was one of my NCO and taught me some of the great skills I still hold close to today. Strong but fair, Jack always listened and looked after the junior men under his command. showing how a true leader leads from the front. I only hope the best for the future plans.”
“Jack has got to be one of the easiest people to talk to, even as a woman talking to a bloke!!! He is very patient and understanding along with friendly and professional. I would highly recommend Jack. If you need someone to talk to, vent to, someone to listen and or advise…..all you need is Just Jack He’s just a genuinely nice bloke!!”
“I worked and liaised with Jack a few years back when I was working for the Veterans’ Mental Health Charity, Combat Stress, as their Reserve Forces Liaison Officer and Jack was supporting military Reservists on behalf of Finchale College. Jack is passionate and highly motivated about supporting those in the Armed Forces Community who are struggling with life and/or mental ill health. As a veteran himself who has lived through some personal challenges after leaving the army, his heart is in the right place and | have no doubt that he is uniquely placed to understand, empathise with and to work effectively with those he supports. In combination with his now considerable experience in this field and his impressive counselling qualifications, l am sure that he will be highly effective in his new venture and I wish him well with it. Most importantly, I know he will in this role make a
positive difference to the lives of the military veterans and others too that he will be involved in supporting. That’s got to be good news and good luck Jack!”
“Highly recommend and extremely professional, I have known jack for over 20 years and he has a wealth of experience not only in the military environment but in one to one counselling.
His own personal experiences in the armed forces allows him to connect and resonate easily with not just military personnel but civilians as well.
Jack has the experience and is highly qualified, his own personal experiences allows him to be more empathetic towards individuals.
A constant professional who strives to be better, a truly selfless individual who will give a 100% to everyone under his care.”
“Never in my life have I ever felt that I needed counselling until a few weeks ago when my life changed dramatically. I can’t thank Jack or praise him enough for helping me get my life back on track and in perspective again, l’ve always been a strong independent woman and | lost sight of that for a bit but Jack made me realise that the answers I knew all along didn’t matter it was how I would learn to deal with them and that was the part of the jigsaw I was missing. I would highly recommend Jack to anyone he’s not how you’d expect a councillor to be he is so accommidating as I had my meetings with him in my car in a public place and I felt safe and comfortable. Talking to Jack is like talking to your closet friend over a few drinks and it helps it really does..Thank you so much Jack for giving me back me x”
“I was in self destruct mode following failed surgery that would have changed my life. I knew it was very little chance of working.
Jack helped me so much to see why I was feeling this way & offered ways I could focus myself and look at it from a different/positive way. I’m now in a different mental state. I’m feeling positive and have embraced my lifestyle”
“Jack is a straight talking man and has really helped me and would highly recommend.”
“I highly recommend Jack. Great and thoughtful counsellor who provides actually actionable advice”
“Brilliant service, Jack is really down to earth and made us feel at ease from the get go. I would highly recommend Jack to any couples going through a make or break situation.”
“Without the help and support of Jack I would never have survived these past 5 months.
Jack has helped me through some very bad times.
He made me aware of groups, introduced me to various people by means of support groups. Jacks patience with me has helped me understand myself and look at things differently and with reason.”
“Thanks to Jack for making me feel so relaxed .
I didn’t know what to expect from counselling. He listened really well and kept referring back to what I had previously said which helped me due to health problems. I thought the walk and talk session is an excellent idea, not clinical, sitting face to face in a small room which I thought counselling would have been. He asked the right questions and the flood gates just opened.
THANK YOU JACK.”
“When I met Jack I was at an extremely low point in my life, after going through many counselors and counseling sessions none of which having worked I thought it was hopeless, Jack was the first counselor that actually worked. He listened to me and helped me to work through the tough times I had been through, allowing me to let the past be the past but also giving me the tools and techniques to deal with these situations if they happened in the future. I have used said tools and techniques many times since the days of my sessions with Jack and my life has only gotten better, my interactions with the world and people around me are much more positive and I’ve grown so much as a person. I truly do not believe i could have done this without Jack, if i hadn’t had his support when I did, I know I wouldn’t have progressed as far as I have. He puts an extremely personal touch on counseling which makes it much easier to open up about things. His approach also makes it easy to listen to the advice he shares as well and he’s always willing to go the extra mile for the people he takes care of.”
“Following a return to a military environment to support my new career I found myself in a really bad place, what some may call
“an episode” this resulted in me needing help. I was unfortunate to be assigned a councillor who was determined I need to relive past experiences. This councillor was a nice guy but had no idea of what soldiers experience. Fortunately I was able to reach out to Jack and received the honest, and direct support I needed from someone who empathised with what I was going through. Jack was able to understand my reservations about placing a label on what I was going through. He “just got it” I didn’t want to relive things, I needed the tools to move forward and to cope when the negative memories and thoughts came knocking. Jack gave me those tools. I was able to return to work and normality months before I was being advised to. Those tools have allowed me to progress in life and work and I can only say
“Thanks Jack” so many times before he Blocks me !!!!”
“The world needs more counsellors like Jack”
“For once it was a fantastic feeling to know that the person that was giving me counselling could really relate to how I feel. I actually believed Jack when he counselled me, especially when I knew he wore the same T-shirt as me”
“Cannot fault the service I received from Jack English Counselling”
“Jack has helped me more than he probably knows. I really appreciate his unique style of counselling which worked for me, not like previous counselling”
“Found the counselling extremely helpful and I am very grateful for all the help given”
“Jack understand each person’s needs and know how to advise and encourage accordingly. I feel very comfortable talking to him, it’s like speaking to a friend.
I would strongly advise his work to anyone.”
“I really appreciate what Jack has done for me, has made the world of difference”
“Great therapist with a very good and personal approach!
I liked the way Jack gives real life examples to manage own problems!”
“It’s been my 3rd session with Jack and the effectiveness of the weekly talks with him are increasing significantly. I feel 100%
comfortable with him to be my true self. I don’t have to hold back and edit myself for fear of not being accepted. His straight up approach is a breath of fresh air for me! | couldn’t ask for a better therapist at this time. If you are willing to show up, dig deep, go hard and do the inner work on yourself as I am right now, Jack could really help get you to where you want to go.
Yes, I have a long way to go, but I’m taking it all step by step and I feel very supported by this awesome human who has also done so much hard work on himself. He’s definitely the real deal and has been a great match for me. Very appreciative!”
“I have had a few 3 sessions with Jack now and am feeling considerably better.
It feels very safe to talk with him and the response is open, non judgemental and his reflections and advice are constructive.
I plan to take it session by session however I can tell that I will need less time in the counselling style he provides than I would in most others.
I’m definitely feeling more optimistic and hopeful about my recovery and the future.
Go Jack!!!”
“Long overdue review: Jack was amazing. Very down to earth and relatable. Helped my husband and myself a lot. I would recommend him xx”
“Jack is a plain speaking, down to earth and immensely sane guy who has seen more of life than most people and has tremendous insight to offer. He’s humorous, direct and clear and I found him to be hugely helpful. Highly recommended –
thank you Jack!”
“Great guy really great therapist.
Helping me get through my issues.
Cannot recommend enough.”
“Jack is the ideal therapist for anyone open-minded and actively willing to be challenged and get their life back in shape or start anew and follow a new direction.”
“Jack is very down to Earth and has helped me immensely in a rather short amount of time. He conducts himself in a very professional manner (i.e. providing qualifications before beginning sessions) yet at the same time is approachable and understanding. A unique and valuable service.”
“Compassionate and Insightful – Highly Recommend Jack English!
I have been working with Jack English for several months now, and I am continually impressed by his exceptional ability to listen and provide insightful feedback. Jack’s unique background as a desert rat has evidently enriched his understanding and empathy, which shine through in every session. He effortlessly blends his past experiences with his therapeutic skills to offer innovative solutions and support.
Jack is genuinely dedicated to his clients’ well-being, and his approach is both professional and comforting. He encourages open communication and creates a safe space for discussing any topic. His ideas are always forward-thinking and beneficial, helping me to see situations from new perspectives and promoting personal growth.
If you’re seeking a therapist who truly cares and offers practical, thoughtful guidance, Jack English is an excellent choice. I’ve experienced significant personal development under his care and cannot recommend him enough!”
“Jack is very professional as a therapist, he will get to know you, understand your struggles and provide solutions that meet your needs.”
“Jack is great – he listens on a non judgmental way and responds in a thought out and practical way.
Would recommend to anyone”
“Very very helpful.
Thank you.
I hope you can feel how helpful you are to another human on the other side of our planet” 🌎
🌈☀️Very appreciative🙏☀️
“Jack is by far the best counsellor I have had, I had been through 3 before him and none had helped.
Jack has motivated me to quit my marijuana usage which has not only improved my mood but overall quality of life. I am doing better in college now, better with relationships and feeling better about myself in general and this is all thanks to Jack’s help.
I would give a 11/10 rating if possible.”
“Jack’s great to talk to.”
I contacted jack roughly about 10 weeks ago. the first words to him were ” I’m in the middle of a shit storm”. Roll on ten weeks and I’m the calmest l’ve been in years.
I’m now looking for new goals brought on by what I have learnt from the sessions with him. When I first seen his video on Google search amd Instagram, I was nervous as I thought he was going to be a brute that would have told me to get my head screwed on. I couldn’t have been more wrong!. He listened to me and not once did feel judged. he really understood me and my situation. Thank you so much for your knowledge, understanding and patience…. you are worth your weight in salt and worth every penny!
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Jack, his expertise, non-judgemental and compassionate approach have made a significant impact on my life.
From our very first session, Jack’s empathetic demeanor and keen listening skills created a safe and welcoming environment. His ability to understand and address my concerns with genuine care was evident throughout our conversations.
Jack’s approach is both professional and personable.
He skillfully balances providing insightful guidance with allowing me the space to explore my thoughts and feelings. He tailored his methods to fit my unique needs, making each session both effective and personal. Jack is incredibly approachable and easy to talk to.
His warm personality and non-judgmental attitude make it easy to open up, even about difficult topics.
He has a remarkable ability to make complex concepts accessible and relatable, which has greatly enhanced my understanding and growth.
Overall, working with Jack has been a transformative experience. His expertise, compassion, and genuine dedication have helped me navigate challenging times and develop healthier coping mechanisms. I highly recommend Jack to anyone seeking a therapist who truly cares about their clients and is committed to making a positive difference in their lives.”
“Jack was very professional and listened to my partner and I during a couples counselling session.
He listened to both of us and helped us bridge the gap that had divided us.
Thank you Jack for a great session & words of wisdom”
“Jack helped me through a difficult transition period in my life and I can only commend him for his empathy, honesty, wealth of experience and down to earth attitude. I would highly recommend Jack to anyone who is thinking of reaching out to a counsellor for support”
“When I first come to jack I was in a very dark place and even thought of the unthinkable jack pulled me back from that instantly how I havnt got a clue because I’m one of those who doesn’t open up I had seen other councillors before hand and got no were with them because they do everything from a book that doesn’t work for me and even began to think there was no real help out there untill I met iack now 6 sessions in and now I actually have control of my feelings/ life again and that feels absolutely amazing I could praise this bloke for ever for what he has done for me he has literally saved my live and saved my kids lives to no matter how unfixable you feel l 100% recommend jack and watch how quick your life turns around me personally will be in jacks debt for ever thank you jack.”
“I worked along side Jack on and off throughout our time in the forces
He’s a straight talking hard working driven individual
He throws himself into any and every task put in front of him with %100 enthusiasm and relishes a challenge
I have no doubt with his hard working attitude and work ethic his counselling skills would be second to none
With a wise head on his shoulders he has the perfect temperament for the role he has taken upon himself
I would have no problem recommending him and his service to any and all”
“I have to say I made more progress in one session with Jack than 5 sessions of traditional therapy at my old therapists’ office.”
“I love to hear Jack talking about his views on mental well-being and why he does the work he does. I’ve watched him develop this vocation over the last few years and it’s great to know that he’s out there, making a real difference.
He’s astute, observant and incredibly down to earth. In a world where it’s difficult to know where to turn next, a chat with Jack will keep it relevant and real.”
“I have known Jack over a number of years in a personal and professional role. Jack has a great skillset in counselling having been at the sharp end in his military service he has a full grasp of issues such as PTSD and other mental health issues.
He uses the skills learnt in the Army in understanding and helping those in need. He has great judgment and analysis when dealing with problems and helping others.
On top of this his
communication and ability to deal with all sorts of people from different backgrounds stands him in good stead on a professional basis.
I have no hesitation in recommending Jack in his current role where he can and does make a real difference.”
“l’ve known Jack for over 30 years and seen him go through various ups and downs in his life. He has loads of life experience and has turned his life around through sheer grit and determination. He is a straight talking, honest guy, very easy to talk with a heart of gold (don’t tell everyone though!) and a bit of humour thrown in for good measure.
I would 100% recommend anvone who needs some guidance, advice, even just a listening ear to get in touch. You won’t regret it!”
“I have known Jack since 1994 when we served together in the same platoon in Bosnia. After parting company for several years we found ourselves on the very same counselling course, i’ve always found Jack to be open honest and straight to the point, this makes for a very engaging counselling
experience that ensures issues can be addressed quickly without fuss and then subsequently resolved. I would personally highly recommend “Jack English Counselling” to anyone looking for help and support in their lives, regardless of the issue.”
“I have had several counselling sessions with Jack at a point in my life when I was going through a terrible time due to a series of events which were beyond my control. Talking to Jack gave me a different perspective on things & enabled me to realise that I can only control myself & my own actions. I stopped focusing on other people & concentrated on my own self & my own life, this advice was crucial in helping me move forward with my life in a positive way. I would recommend Jack to anyone in need of therapeutic support & advice.”
“My son was going through a very difficult time with his mental health and I was extremely worried about him. I did some research for some private counselling and found Jack. He has changed my sons life, given him some direction and helped him back on his feet. I would 100% recommend him. If it wasn’t for Jack the outcome could have been completely different. I’m forever grateful.”
“Unconventional yet experienced u remember all Ur study and cite many philosophical quotes from renowned authors and yet u have the life experience the common sense and emotional scars to understand that mental issues even from childhood can cause different emotions and effects on the way people think. Yet still understand everyone thinkings and feelings are different regardless of their issues and u are aware of Ur own mental state and issues and use Ur experience as a tool not weakness. That’s a real skill for a counsellor.”
“Jack is not only knowledgable and listens very well an picks up the signs, I think Jack has been thru the difficulties we normally discuss, adding an aspect of experience to the formula..”
“I started seeing Jack because my girlfriend suggested it, and I was the kind of guy who doesn’t believe much in counseling but man I’ve never been so wrong.After the first session i felt better and i’m sure it’s all thanks to Jack and the way he made me feel comfortable talking about myself and the things that i struggle with, he’s an amazing counselor with a lot of experience both in counseling and in life, i’ll never be able to thank him enough and i’m glad i reached out to him because i never thought i’ll be compfortable and able to share so much with someone i just met but that’s Jack, so thank you Jack for caring.
PS: we always go overtime and it never bothered him I would even say that he’s happy to do it and that shows you how much he genuinely cares”
“Very honest, straight talking advice and support. Can’t thank them enough for helping me through the most difficult of times. Everyone needs a Jack in their lives!”
“I’d like to start from saying that picking a right therapist it’s the main important think for your recovery
I look on more then 20 profiles before I find Jack, such a respectful, mannered wise man ready to put something positive in your life all the time
The level of judgement has no space in Jack’s Therapy
If you look for a place to heal Jack it’s the best idea to choose”
“Thanks for getting in touch jack. A lot has happened since we spoke. The conversation we had was a catalyst for a lot of positive changes. I reflected a lot on what was discussed and discussed this with my partner and I am becoming more social, have purchased a second car for myself as I kinda punished myself by walking, running and cycling everywhere. I’ve bought my myself a paddle board as a very different hobby and we now spend more time outdoors at the coast swimming and boarding. We have also decided to stop procrastinating and are in the process of arranging our marriage. There are lots of other changes I have made, addressing my hypothyroidism with doctor, engaging more with people in conversation, have virtually stopped angry man syndrome and am feeling much calmer and happier in myself.
So thanks very much, although it was just a single discussion I feel we covered a lot, and as result of advice received from you I’m happier and more relaxed than ever before (honestly). If I feel the need for further discussion I will be in touch.
Thanks jack
“Jack’s approach to counselling is utterly unique, his direct yet down to earth mentality creates an environment that is both comforting, and yet completely directed towards addressing and solving the problems I had. In short, Jack will not squeeze 100 sessions out of you, he will get straight to it, and most importantly he will give you the tools and support you need to face adversity and trauma, be it past, present or future. I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
“I am in a much better position after our sessions, Jack is a very easy person to talk to about things you normally keep locked away, he is very insightful, non judgemental and straight talking while making you feel comfortable enough to get things off your chest and mind”
“Jack has really helped me through a tough time, providing clarity and perspective when I needed it most.
He’s straight-talking but with heaps of empathy and lived experience to go along with it. He provided useful tools, processes and things to think about outside of calls which I’ve practically adopted. I would definitely recommend Jack.
“Happy with direction of my therapy. Thx”
“Jack’s uniquely methodical at getting to the root cause of things and then lays bare useful options on possible ways forward with the choice for you to also add your ideas as well to the pool which I really appreciated.”
“Great therapist: down to earth, no nonsense. Someone sensible to talk to.”
“He’s a very present person which I respect and connect with.”
“I can barely explain how much Jack has helped me. I was in such a dark place for many years, the thoughts | had, the things I did to myself were just wrong. And honestly after having a poor experience with therapy beforehand I did not think I would ever leave that dark place. But here I am, I am doing so good. Jack helped me more than I could ever imagine, the 3 months I spent with him was a journey.
He just got me and knew exactly how to help. The best bit was I challenged him, I disagreed with his views but he never gave up on me, eventually showing me the light. I look forward to my next chapter of life, something I haven’t felt in 5 years.”
“Great speaking partner and passionate, direct counselor. Highly recommend!”
“Very thought provoking and helpful”
“Jack is an incredible counsellor. Especially for men.
Really down to earth, says it how it is. Masters that balance between support but also challenges you in the right ways to create change, growth and healing.
Very easy to talk to openly right from the first session. Highly recommend him – he’ll be my go-to for as long as he’s working in this field. Keep doing the good work Jack.”
“Jack is definitely a good fit for me. He is very down to earth and we get to the point, which I like. He is one of those people you wish you met many years ago!”
“Very easy to talk to, Jack seems very real and a very good listener. I would highly recommend him for men looking to talk to a man”
“Jack is great, he has been invaluable to me.”
“Got to say the sessions with you were worth their weight and gold and they are still proving useful. What you do, how you come across, your approach is excellent. I highly recommend you.
Wishing you a great weekend best regards Mark”
“Only done a couple of sessions with jack but I feel like he is easy to talk to and very helpful”
“They say the hardest bit is recognising the need for counselling. It is, but I also dreaded the first meeting – how much to say or disclose? Jack was really easy to speak to, building rapport and trust, and made the first session much easier than I anticipated. I’ve since had the chance to be honest with myself and face my issues in a logical practical and rational way. Jack’s challenged some of my unnecessary fears to the extent that I’m no longer frightened. I’m so grateful for the straight talking, no nonsense approach and delighted I’ve turned a corner as a result! Thanks, Jack”
“Jack has helped me discover who I am and who I want to become moving forward. I began therapy with him during a time of crisis, when my mental health was spiralling in a bad direction, and his support was invaluable. No matter how big or small the issue, he approaches everything with the same level of professionalism and respect. He is non judgmental, understanding, and direct, but that never takes away from his empathy and care which was exactly what I needed. I couldn’t be more grateful for the impact he has had on my life.”
“Hi Jack, sorry to bother you so late.
I’m going to be canceling my therapy for a while, due to unplanned circumstances.
I will however be back as soon as I can.
You have helped a lot Sir, with your shared experiences it made me feel like I’m not the only one that deals with these things and crappy situations.
You dealt with it, and a whole lot more and you’re doing good, you’re happy and I can genuinely feel it sometimes.
I’m glad to have connected with you and | really thank you so much for everything.
I managed to convince my dad to get my mum into a rehab center and I’m not going to put her in just any center, so it will be very expensive moving forward for me.
You are wise and you are a brilliant kind and amazing therapist, you are honestly great!
Take care Sir and keep well! It was all a pleasure”
“I found myself in a place where I felt stuck-10 years single, living the life I had always dreamed of, yet feeling a block I couldn’t identify. From the very start of my sessions with Jack English, I found his approach to be incredibly uplifting. He has a unique ability to gently draw back the curtain on things I didn’t even realize I was hiding, bringing them into the light with compassion and clarity.
Through our chats, I rediscovered a sense of self-worth that had been missing for years. Just two months in, I feel like a new person. I’ve even found someone to share my incredible life with, someone who truly aligns with me-something I had almost given up hope on.
If you’re feeling stuck and unsure which direction to take, I can’t recommend Jack enough. A few sessions with him have changed my life, and I’m confident they can change yours too.”
Jack English is an AMAZING warrior who has passed his simple but affective coping strategies onto me. I’ve felt supported. Encouraged. Guided. Now I feel that I can handle whatever life throws at me as I now practice what Jack suggested and can use this formula in every area of my life. Jack has already in a short space of time made such a POWERFUL impact in my life so much so that I carry him with me everywhere go. I ask what would Jack say or suggest I do? I will return to time and again as it’s so helpful that it has opened up my life experience due to the subsequent positive changes l’ve made in my life after being blessed with hours of Jack English nothing I’ll find as challenging as I did prior to meeting this awesome wonderment that is Jack English. Thank you for being you and all that you do. I appreciate you.
“I’ve recently had counselling from Jack English and from my first session being anxious as hell to the final session where i was calm but understanding on how a massive impact jack made is second to none. Highly recommended 💯 and i do require more so I’ll definitely look at more sessions with Jack.”
“Jack offers me a really safe place to talk and open up.
He offer a really good balance between empathy and challenging me when I get locked into those thought spirals.
Really good therapist.”
“Having written a very positive review in the early months of my counselling experience with Jack, it seems timely somewhere down the line to express how I am continuing to grow, benefit and recover from numerous traumatic experiences.
Jacks warmth, kindness and professionalism creates a space to be open and free when talking. Although work is being done, there is a rare combination around compassion, a light touch and constructive suggestions towards moving forwards.
The work Jack has done with me has been genuinely life changing and although i am still in need of support, i am confident that with Jacks help i will continue to grow and get better. Clare”
“Been suffering with PTSD since 2003, l’ve seen Jack before a few years ago which helped however I became worse later on and seen my GP and put into a system designed for soldiers and seen numerous counsellors which made me very uncomfortable and anxious due to being asked stupid questions.
Jack has pulled me out of a very very dark hole as I nearly committed suicide for the third time about 5 months ago. I’ve just had my 5th session with Jack and already have the ability to look at things differently and feel a lot more relaxed in an environment I don’t understand and no longer feel suicidal and can see a light at the end of the tunnel, this is thanks to Jack, he has the personal experience, military experience and the qualifications which cuts all the nonsense out with seeing Jack and skips 5 chapters out of the process of rehabilitation. I fully recommend Jack English Counselling to anyone especially soldiers.”
“I cannot recommend Jack highly enough. From the very first session, he created a warm, non-judgemental space where I felt truly heard and understood. His empathy, insight, and gentle guidance have helped me work through challenges I once thought impossible to overcome.
Jack has a rare ability to strike the perfect balance between compassion and clarity. He doesn’t just listen-he gets it. He asks the right questions, offers meaningful reflections, and always brings things back to my strengths and goals. Thanks to his support, l’ve grown in confidence, emotional resilience, and self-awareness.”
“Jack is a great listener and offers me different perspectives to help me frame my thoughts better.”
