I’m Jake, my pronouns are he/him. I am a qualified counsellor based at the Whiteladies Therapy Rooms in the Redland/Clifton area of Bristol. Clients describe me as calm, caring, supportive and understanding.

I’m an integrative counsellor, which means I’m trained in multiple ways of working, and together we can find the style which suits you best. I specialise in helping with anxiety of various kinds including generalised anxiety disorder, social anxiety, panic/anxiety attacks and separation anxiety.

You may want help with a specific issue in your life. Or our work might be to gain insight into formative experiences, and bring patterns of thought and behaviour to light. Or perhaps you feel you are already aware of the issues, but still cannot move beyond them? In this case we can take an experiential approach, gently working through the emotions and feelings until they no longer stand in your way.

Please contact me to discuss a free initial consultation, or you can see my availability and book an initial appointment on my website.
