Alice Jackson

MA in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and Counselling, Goldsmiths University
Years in practice: 5
Offers:  Remote Therapy

In my approach, I place importance on exploring the root cause of the problem and provide an affirming therapeutic space to facilitate change. A therapeutic relationship that is accepting and non-judgmental makes space for growth and healing. Psychotherapy and counselling invites an exploration of challenging past experiences and focuses on processing the feelings we hold as a result of these experiences. At the heart of our work together we will seek to understand our emotions and work alongside them. As we work through the foundations of patterns, behaviours, and feelings in a safe and supported environment, we gain greater insight into ourselves, this is where we can make significant change.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or like you’re just going through the motions? Battling depression, anxiety, or the weight of past trauma? Many men struggle in silence, but you don’t have to. Reaching out takes real courage – and you’ve already shown that by being here.

I’m Jeff, a psychotherapeutic counsellor and coach who specialises in men’s mental health. As a male counsellor, I get it – I understand the pressure to “man up,” the difficulty of opening up, and how hard it can be to ask for support. I work with men of all ages: young adults navigating life transitions, dads struggling to connect with their teenagers, and men processing relationship challenges, work stress, or past trauma.

My trauma-informed approach combines emotional healing with practical strategies. We’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck while building real tools for managing emotions, improving communication, and showing up as the man you want to be. You deserve genuine understanding and lasting change.

Degree in Person-centred Counselling & Psychotherapy, University of Warwick, UK
Years in practice: 10
Offers:  Remote Therapy
I’m passionate about supporting men with their mental health. There still seems to be a stigma attached to men asking for help. It takes courage to seek support. I’ve run a global business so I can relate to work pressures and juggling the work-life balance. I give you confidential space to explore what’s going on for you. I offer a range of interventions in my work… like having a toolbox; depending on the issue, I use different tools to address the problem. I offer both counselling and coaching. I’m not a ‘fluffy’ counsellor; you won’t need to ‘sensor’ anything you say!”
