ONLINE THERAPY FOR ADHD, NEURODIVERGENT MINDS AND THOSE FEELING THE STRAIN OF MODERN LIFE.
No shaming. No judgement. Just a calm, confidential, down-to-earth approach to helping those trying to hold it together whilst stuck in survival mode.
Hi, I'm Jack, a Counsellor and registered BACP member, holding MBACP status. My additional training in ADHD led by leading expert Dr James Kustow, helps shape the way I work.
Having ADHD myself allows me to understand not just ADHD itself, but the lived experience that comes with it.
It's not all being 'scatty', being the 'life and soul' of the party, it can be exhausting and lead to some very serious issues, overwhelm, burnout, risky behaviours, low mood, self-doubt, grief, relationship troubles & the very real feeling that life always feels harder than it should, plus all things caused by the pressures of modern life, but you don't need me to tell you all this, you are living with it and it takes real courage to admit something feels wrong and to reach out for help.
Whether you're exploring ADHD or simply feeling overwhelmed by life, I offer a Free 15-minute introductory call. There's absolutely no pressure with this, its a chance for you to ask any questions and get a feel of whether we may be able to work together or not.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Additional information
I’m committed to making therapy more accessible and offer a limited number of reduced-fee places for lower-income clients and NHS workers. This can be discussed during a free 15-minute introduction call and is assessed on a case-by-case basis in an aim to ensure fairness while continuing to provide support to those who need it most.

I offer online sessions lasting 50 minutes via Zoom, Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp or any other platform that suits you. I work short‑term or longer‑term depending on your needs, and can offer flexible appointments where possible.
Because it is important you find the right counsellor for you, I offer a no‑cost 15‑minute introductory chat. This is a chance to experience how it feels to talk together, ask questions about me or therapy, and talk about what brings you to counselling. Please share only what feels comfortable.
There is no pressure to commit to anything at this stage. If we continue, we will build a working relationship with regular check‑ins, so you feel heard, supported and able to move at a pace that feels right for you.
If you are thinking about starting therapy, or even just curious, you are very welcome to get in touch.
