About Jean-François (J.F.) Jacques

Jean-François (J.F.) Jacques is an HCPC registered Arts Therapist and Certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP) offering trauma-informed therapy and couples support for adults.

J.F. provides individual arts therapy to help address and overcome a wide range of issues, drawing on creative and expressive approaches. He specialises in somatic-based treatment to address the long-lasting effects of traumatic experiences, using Somatic Experiencing—a naturalistic and neurobiological approach to healing trauma. His couples therapy work focuses on rebuilding connection and mutual understanding between partners.

Beyond direct client work, J.F. offers individual clinical supervision for creative arts therapists, psychotherapists, counsellors, and psychologists, and delivers specialised talks and trainings in trauma-informed therapeutic practice and the use of the arts.

With a PhD in Arts and Somatic Therapy, J.F. brings depth of knowledge and professional rigour to his practice. He works with adults seeking to process difficult experiences, strengthen relationships, or develop their own therapeutic skills and understanding. His integrative approach combines the body-centred wisdom of somatic work with the reflective, creative potential of arts therapy.
