About Jacob
BACP counsellor and level 7 person-centred psychotherapist with 3 years' experience in the United Kingdom. Jacob Mason helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and LGBT related issues. He also supports people managing career strain, self-esteem difficulties, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue and other overlapping problems.
Jacob uses a person-centred approach. Sessions are non-directive and focus on listening and understanding what matters to the individual. He aims to create an environment where people can speak openly about their thoughts and feelings. The work is collaborative and paced to the person's needs.
In practice Jacob often combines person-centred ways of working with solution-focused techniques. That can mean spending time understanding a problem, then shifting into short-term goal work and practical steps people can try between sessions. He keeps language plain and offers clear options rather than technical labels.
He has particular experience with issues around identity and gender, intimacy and sexual behaviour, and relationship communication problems. He also supports people facing life changes, loss, addiction-related patterns, and the emotional impact of illness such as HIV and AIDS.
Sessions are provided in English and delivered from the UK. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, clients use the site button to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session.

How person-centred and solution-focused work translates to online sessions
Jacob uses person-centred therapy and solution-focused methods in online work. Person-centred therapy means the counsellor listens closely and follows the client’s lead, creating space for people to talk through feelings and identity questions. It suits issues like grief, low self-esteem, and LGBT related concerns where being heard is central.Solution-focused work concentrates on small, practical steps and identifiable goals. It is useful when someone wants concrete changes - for example improving communication, addressing a specific habit, or managing stress with short-term strategies. Sessions often move from exploring the issue to agreeing on actions to try between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jacob will work collaboratively to decide whether person-centred listening, solution-focused goal-setting, or a mix suits the client’s aims and preferences. That choice can shift over time as needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins, or conversations without being on camera when that helps someone engage. Registered or accredited professionals offer a range of formats; check the platform details to see which are available with this counsellor.
