About me
Hi, my name is Jennie. As a person-centred therapist I offer a warm, safe and non-judgemental space where you can talk freely about your life and experiences. I will listen, support and help you explore what feels important to you.
I understand that life can become overwhelming, and you may feel less able to deal with the challenges you face. I believe that each person has the ability to grow, heal and find their way forward when given the right support.
My approach is based on empathy, respect and genuine care - I won’t tell you what to do, but I will work with you to feel that you can tackle problems more effectively.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety, low mood, loss, relationships, or simply feeling stuck, our sessions can help you make sense of your experiences and reconnect with yourself.
Training, qualifications & experience
I provide a safe, non-judgemental space where you can talk openly, deciding what to talk about and at what pace.
I won’t tell you what to do or offer quick fixes. Instead I aim to understand your world, from your point of view, so you feel truly heard and valued as you explore your thoughts and feelings, helping you to make sense of things and find your own way forward.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
