About Jason

Jason Brooker is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with ten years of professional experience in the UK. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger, addictions, eating concerns and depression. He aims to make it easier for someone to begin talking about what feels hard right now.

Jason takes a straightforward, talk-based approach. He listens to how a person describes their life and looks for practical ways to reduce distress. Sessions often focus on recognizing repeated patterns, such as people-pleasing or losing sense of self, and on small steps that feel achievable between meetings.

He uses a mix of methods to match the issue at hand. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps change unhelpful thinking and coping habits. Mindfulness work helps ground people during strong emotions. Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice recurring relationship patterns that cause pain.

Jason also brings trauma-focused ways of working when past hurt is getting in the way of everyday life. That can mean pacing conversations differently and building skills to manage intense reactions. He pays attention to topics some people find difficult to say out loud, such as attachment struggles, body-image worries, kink or codependency concerns.

Sessions are conversational and goal-minded. People are encouraged to try out small experiments between sessions and to reflect on what helps. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment.

How sessions work

How Jason uses therapy approaches online

Client-Centred work focuses on understanding a person’s experience and priorities. It involves listening closely and helping someone name what matters most, which can be useful for stress, relationship worries and feelings of emptiness.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. It breaks problems into manageable steps and introduces small experiments to test new ways of coping, often useful for anxiety, panic and unhelpful routines.

Trauma-focused work pays attention to past hurt that affects daily life now. It moves at a pace the person can handle and combines skills to manage strong reactions with reflection on how past events shape present responses.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels doable, and then choose methods together. That collaborative approach helps shape sessions and what is practised between meetings.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking because the biography did not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Therapists and registered or accredited professionals help clients decide the best way to meet based on practical needs and clinical goals.
