Are you going through a time of loss or change in your life?
Are you suffering from low self-esteem, anxiety or depression?
Are you worried about your drinking?
Hi, my name is Jen and I work with people throughout the UK offering sessions via video and telephone and also live chat.
I offer a safe and confidential space for you to understand and work through the challenges you are facing. In our counselling sessions you have a place where you can make sense of the past, deal with present day stresses and / or make decisions about your future.
I have been practicing as a therapist for over 15 years and, in this time, life, training and professional experience have shaped me into the down to earth, authentic and empathic therapist I am now.
I have worked extensively with young people and adults dealing with a wide range of difficulties including:
- Alcohol-related problems
- Depression and anxiety
- Relationship issues
- Work-related stress
- Self harm
- Low self-esteem
- Bereavement
- Abuse
- Loss and change
- Personal development
This list is not exhaustive so please get in touch with any questions you might have.
I am a firm supporter of counselling and therapy, having experienced the positive impact of safe, supportive counselling relationships both personally and professionally. Beginning the counselling process is a leap into the unknown and can undoubtedly feel nerve wracking.
Please be assured that you will be met with empathy, warmth, respect and a solution-focused attitude.
We will work at your pace to bolster your autonomy and sense of empowerment: allowing you to make sense of your thoughts and feelings and gain a greater understanding of self and the world you inhabit.
Beginning the counselling process is a leap into the unknown and therefore can be a nerve wracking step but with curiosity and courage may come greater contentment.
I am a Registered Individual Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and as such, I abide by its Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions. I am also fully insured.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
