About Jack
Jack Chiu is a clinical psychologist who brings six years of practice to his work. He uses a warm, authentic manner and prioritises the relationship with each person who comes to therapy. Jack aims to create a calm, steady space where clients can talk through their current struggles and shape practical goals together.
He draws on several evidence-informed approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and attachment-based methods. Sessions may include learning skills for managing strong emotions, practising new ways of relating, and using mindfulness to slow down unhelpful patterns. Jack adapts these methods to the needs and preferences of the person in front of him.
Clients commonly seek help for stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and life changes. He also works with issues like parenting, grief, LGBT concerns, ADHD and mood disorders. Jack describes his work as collaborative - he helps people set realistic steps and checks progress along the way.
His background includes work across not-for-profit services, schools, community clinics, corporate settings and private practice. He has experience supervising clinical teams and providing training to other psychologists and mental health practitioners.
Jack practises in Australia and holds registration with AHPRA. Sessions are conducted in English and intended for adult and adolescent clients. If you are considering therapy, he asks people to describe their main concerns so he can suggest a suitable way forward.
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without being driven by them and to choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and life changes where finding direction matters.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and testing new, more useful ways of responding. It is often used for anxiety, mood disorders and managing stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jack will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend a mix of methods. Decisions about pacing, skills practice and how sessions are structured are made together so the approach fits the client’s life.
The therapist's biography does not list which online formats are offered, so please confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work, study or parenting schedules, and can allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use mindfulness and behavioural skills in their usual environment, with guidance on practice between sessions. Appropriately registered therapists can adapt ACT and CBT tools to a remote setting and help clients track progress over time.
