About me
Hello, my name is Jason and I am an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist offering short and long term counselling in-person and online. I work with individuals, couples and groups.
There are many reasons why people choose to come to therapy but whatever the reason it is a commitment of time, money and an investment in yourself. Perhaps you are struggling with anxiety, depression, a lack of direction, or you are frustrated that you seem to repeat the same behaviours and feel stuck. Maybe you are facing difficulties in your relationships and can't explain why. Maybe something just doesn't feel right but you can't quite put your finger on what. You are not alone.
My practice is informed by psychodynamic psychotherapy, particularly attachment theory, and the belief that we are each responsible for creating purpose and meaning in our own lives. How I work will depend on you but I like to work creatively using images, exploring dreams, fantasies, meditation and guided imagery to help you focus and take a step back from the daily grind. The freedom to be different than you are will often emerge out of the curiosity you develop toward your deepest, often darkest, desires and needs.
Couples and relationship counselling
Conflict is the primary reason couples seek help. Conflict is natural in any relationship but sometimes it can feel like differences are so entrenched you question whether you can stay together. Alternatively you feel you know each other so well life together has become boring or you've lost the spark you once had. My focus is on getting you back in touch with each other, learning to be intimate again and attempt an understanding of how it is that you manage to press each others buttons even when you try not to. Sometimes couples have already decided to separate and come to therapy to do so intelligently.
I am an accredited member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society and an accredited member of the International Association of Psychology and Counselling (UK).
Sessions lasts for 50 minutes and the minimum number is six. These usually take place in the same time slot each week. I can see you face to face in E8 (Mare Street) or EC1 (St Paul's) and on Zoom if you are anywhere else in the world.

Training, qualifications & experience
I have worked in the NHS, at an alcohol therapy service, a youth homeless hostel, with sex workers, rough sleepers and drug addicts. I ran personal development groups with staff in organisations who work with vulnerable adults and conducted mental health assessments for various charities.
In my current private practice I work with couples experiencing difficulties in their relationship, and individuals who, for whatever reason, are finding they are not getting what they need out of life. As a result I have experience working with marital affairs, separation and divorce, trauma, terminal illness and end of life, bereavement and grief, childhood abuse, PTSD, anxiety and panic attacks, depression and suicidal thoughts, gender dysphoria, sexual compulsivity, low self-esteem, addiction & recovery, self harm and personality disorders.
I have a Diploma in Integrative Counselling, a Certificate in Working with Couples and a Foundation in Group Analysis.
