Jake McGee , BACP

Jake McGee is a UK-based therapist with five years of professional experience who supports people working through addiction, trauma, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, and a wide range of other concerns. He has provided LGBT-focused counselling, delivered addiction therapy in a residential treatment centre, and worked with survivors of sexual abuse. His practice also addresses issues such as self-esteem, parenting, grief, intimacy-related concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and process addictions including gambling and problematic sexual behaviours.

Jake’s approach is grounded in person-centred therapy, which prioritises empathy, respect, and collaboration to help clients explore their own goals and strengths. He is currently undertaking a Level 5 diploma in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - a qualification that informs how he may integrate CBT techniques into sessions when appropriate. He also draws on motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas as fits each person’s needs. Jake holds BACP, a membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which represents a recognised UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists.

He tailors dialogue and treatment plans to each client’s unique circumstances and works with sensitivity and compassion. Jake aims to make the first steps into therapy as manageable as possible and recognises the courage it takes to begin that process.
