About me
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile and giving me the opportunity to introduce myself…
My name is Jenna and I offer personalised counselling sessions, with an emphasis upon creating a nurturing environment, based upon trust and without judgement. I will play an active role in supporting you to achieve your therapy goals.
Client questions
Are you feeling like you are drowning and life is feeling ‘heavy’? Are you feeling overwhelmed and unsure which way to turn? Do you feel an internal emptiness or numbness, which makes you feel disconnected from yourself and others? Or do you find yourself overthinking to the point you feel unable to process your thoughts clearly?
Now imagine having the tools to cope with the issue you have. How would this change your day to day life? Would you feel less overwhelmed and more in control? Would this help you to feel calmer and lighter? Would you feel more energised from not having to carry that heavy burden? Would it enable you to reconnect with a part of yourself you've felt has been missing? Could it help you to sleep better? What if it helped you to come to terms with a painful experience or loss?
How I can help
I honestly believe that provided with the right strategies and support, we all have the strength within ourselves to overcome life’s most challenging and painful experiences.
Together, we will work with a variety of established techniques and theories to develop a tailor made strategy to cater for your needs. These methods and strategies will help empower you to take a step back, break the cycle and constructively reflect on your situation. Once you understand the root cause of negative feelings, actions and behaviours, you can then begin the process of making changes for the better.
As a trauma informed practitioner, we will also work with your nervous system to bring internal calmness. For instance, trauma and anxiety are both very physical responses that happen in the body. These overwhelming sensations often makes it difficult to cope not only in the moment but also in our day to day life. Equally, depression can immobilise us, making it extremely challenging to carry out daily tasks.
Have you ever wondered how some people are able to go through such traumatic events and not be traumatised or have never experienced the debilitating experience of depression? Through helping you to understand and regulate your nervous system, you are better able to manage stressful situations in a calm and less internal and external reactive manner.

As a qualified teacher, I have seen and experienced first-hand the pressures school children and staff face daily. Many days I would find children who were struggling to regulate their emotions or who were suffering with extreme anxiety daily, amongst other issues. I would equally find staff who were also struggling with the workload and high expectations placed upon them. It was from these experiences I made the decision to retrain as a counsellor as I could see the huge benefits this role could bring to a variety of people. This led me on my journey to become a school counsellor where I worked with various students, parents/guardians, and staff.
During my time here, I found many students struggled to understand and articulate what and how they were feeling. This is what inspired me to seek out other types of therapy as I realised talking therapies were not always the best fit for everyone. It was from this realisation I went on to train and receive my Equine Facilitated Therapy Diploma.
I thoroughly enjoyed learning about Equine Facilitated Therapy and I am excited to be able to offer this experimental and transformative therapy as another way to help people deal with a range of issues.
In my private practice, I work with various organisations and private clients, where I deliver 1-1 Counselling and Equine Facilitated Therapy sessions and group workshops to adults and young people.

Areas of counselling I deal with
Other areas of counselling I deal with
I also offer Equine Facilitated Therapy. This involves a combination of counselling and working with horses from the ground, engaging in activities such as bonding, grooming, leading and completing obstacle courses.
I have found Equine Facilitated Therapy works extremely well for children and adults who have found the conventional 'sit down and talk' approach hasn't worked for them or for those who would like to receive therapy in an alternative setting and in a different way.
What makes Equine Facilitated Therapy particularly powerful as the participant doesn't need to 'talk' through or find the 'right' words for their circumstance.
To learn more about this type of therapy or to book a session, please call or email for a free no obligation consultation.
