About me
About me
Hi, I am Jack (www.eryritherapy.com) a trauma-specialised psychotherapist based in the beautiful mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia). I work with the whole spectrum of mental health issues and I am particularly interested in overcoming and integrating single-event and complex trauma, managing anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, managing difficult emotions, gender-based violence, healthy masculinity, finding purpose in life, death anxiety and grief.
My Approach
I use various approaches but always work holistically - your psyche, behaviours, past, values, physical health, social connections, work, and passions all make up who you are. Your mental health doesn't exist separately from the rest of your life, so while we will work with your inner experience, we will also focus on how your inner experience interacts with the other spheres of your life.
Finding Safety and Purpose
The brain and the body are incredible things. They have powerful hidden processes constructed by millennia of psychological evolution and informed by past events, trauma, fears, old relationships and a neverending quest for safety and security. Unfortunately, in the modern world, these processes can sometimes go awry and stop serving us, even actively damaging us in their misfiring search for safety and security. Our work will help your mind and your body find that sense of safety and security again. Once we have that equilibrium, we can work towards a more meaningful life driven by purpose, values and intention.
The details
I am NCPS accredited and a BACP member. I have an MSc in Counselling (Dist and award-winning). I have also completed training in CBT, Psychodynamic, Person Centred Therapy, DBT, ACT, Polyvagal theory and the Trauma Rewind Technique. I am a kind, competent and generous presence in the therapy room. My therapy room is in Gwynedd, North Wales or we can work online.
The relationship is at the core of all good therapy work. A relationship is built over time, with trust and consistency but it is also important that you feel like working with me is the right choice for you. Please get in touch for a free 20-minute chat/consultation to see if this is the right fit for you.
Testimonials
"Working with Jack, you cannot fail to learn and thrive. He is warm, gentle, calm and a facilitator for growth and change. Meeting Jack has been a privilege from day one and I cannot commend him enough. His style of therapy, his patience, and his insights and demeanor ensure effective and collaborative work, which brings safe, yet powerful change in the short and long term. If you have the opportunity to work with this remarkable man, I urge you to take this opportunity. He will guide you to where you need to go in the next step of your journey."
"Jack worked with an extremely complex caseload, with a wide range of
presenting issues. Many of these clients had confirmed diagnoses of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, complex PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder, and Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorders. With each of these individuals Jack was successful in building a safe therapeutic relationship, and working with them beyond their medical classifications, but on a personal level with their story. As his Clinical Supervisor at the time I found Jack to be a very reflective practitioner who was a keen advocate for post-traumatic growth, encouraging his clients to embrace their vulnerability in order to work effectively with their loss."
