About me

Hi and Welcome,

My name is Jenni and I am a Qualified Person Centred Counsellor and CBT Counsellor.  And I utilise both modalities and work integratively, with my clients. I tailor my counselling sessions, to meet your own unique and individual requirements. Person Centred, is a fantastic model of counselling, that allows you reflect and gain self awareness on your feelings and behaviours. However, if you are looking for specific coping techniques, or psycho education, to help you manage your problems or issues, CBT therapy is excellent for that.  I currently work with adults via, on line, telephone and face to face at a therapy room in Prestwich. For any questions Please contact me on 07958 353 694 or Email me at amenitycounselling@outlook.com and we can arrange a  FREE online or 20 minute telephone consultation.

I am a warm, empathic Counsellor and I care passionately about being a Counsellor. I can offer you a safe space, for you to talk about and process any problems or issues you are facing. I am very understanding  and non-judgemental. I can offer you support, increased self awareness and a different perspective on your situation, which can really help  if you are in a challenging situation or you are feeling stuck . My goal, as a therapist is to  help you become a happier and healthier you.  I guarantee, I will do my best to provide you with a growth mindset and empower you, to cope better with your current difficulties. I run a private practice and I also work for The Creative Living Centre Prestwich, a Charity, for vulnerable adults. I am experienced in working with people with anxiety, depression, low mood, stress, grief, loss, low self-esteem /inner critic issues and relationship issues.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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).

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
