About Jack
Jack Dittman-Beswick is an ACA counsellor with ten years' experience working in Australia. They support people with anxiety, depression, stress, identity questions, and big life changes, and list social anxiety and phobia among their areas of focus. Jack uses a person-centred way of working that follows what matters to the client.
Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on practical goals. Conversation is straightforward and paced for someone who finds social situations or speaking up difficult. Jack offers understanding of neurodivergent experience and pays attention to how thinking and sensory differences affect everyday life.
They have a particular interest in LGBTQIA+ issues and in relationship styles that fall outside mainstream norms. This includes polyamory, kink and alternative sexual cultures, and gender questions. Jack describes their practice as openly affirming of diverse identities and relationship choices.
In sessions Jack blends person-centred work with brief tools from other approaches when those tools seem useful. That might look like practising a short exercise together, or working on communication strategies for social situations. The focus is practical: small steps that fit daily life.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions run on a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Person-centred work and online sessions
Jack primarily practices client-centred therapy, which focuses on listening closely and following what matters most to the client. This approach helps when social anxiety or identity questions make it hard to speak up, because the pace and topics are set by the client rather than imposed by the therapist.They also draw on brief practical tools when useful, such as simple grounding exercises or communication skills practice. These tools are chosen together in session and are used to address things like anxiety in social situations, relationship communication, or managing stress and overwhelm.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jack will collaborate with each person to decide which ways of working suit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice is reviewed as therapy proceeds so adjustments can be made.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when that suits a client. They can also allow someone to work with a therapist who understands LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent experiences without needing to change local arrangements.
