Hi! I’m Jack, a BACP counsellor running
sessions for boys in London.
Mental health support for your son shouldn’t look like this…
It should look like this!
Play first, learn second.
Despite a rapidly growing need, only 51% of young males engage with mental health support. Why is this? Well the counselling setting hasn’t changed in decades. Adults struggle to engage with it, so how can we expect young boys with short attention spans to?
Since starting my activity based sessions, I have helped dozens of boys who refused to engage with traditional sessions. The details for these sessions are on the drop downs below:
-
Sessions tailored to your son’s needs
Casual sessions whilst doing a preferred activity
Any sports or activities, Roblox, Fifa, Chess.. The list goes on!
‘Sandwich’ communication before and after sessions to ensure the best possible support:
Before sessions - exchanging voice notes to find out what your son has been struggling with in the preceding weeks
After sessions - I send a detailed follow up voice note to convey anything specific we might have worked on

My Background
Since qualifying as a person-centred counsellor (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy), I realised that the majority of young people do not get the most from a traditional therapeutic setting! I since launched my activity based sessions which have been a hit with young people. For more details about my qualifications and background, CLICK HERE.
What Parents Are Saying
"Jack has been invaluable when it came to getting our son back to school. He wasn’t able to engage with any of the previous counsellors in more traditional settings.”
Mother, 9 year old son
"We viewed it as a prevention rather than cure to make sure our son can deal with everything that comes his way. It has surprised us how much calmer he is now!”
Mother, 13 year old son
"Jack has helped us bridge the generational gap between us and our son. It is also reassuring to know he is learning coping skills to help him with life’s challenges.”
Father, 10 year old son
