About me
Hi, I'm Jennifer, I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor who has been working as a mental health therapist within the NHS and local charities for many years.
I focus on offering a warm, empathic and non-judgemental space for us to work together to explore your thoughts and feelings and support you to find a way forward though life’s challenges.
I know counselling can be very challenging and scary, but it can also be very rewarding. During our time together, I aim to build a strong therapeutic relationship with you, which will provide a space for you to feel accepted, to not worry about being judged and be able to be open and honest. Counselling isn’t about me telling you what to do, but instead, within our sessions we will work together to achieve your goals, to help find solutions to your problems, to heal from your traumas and to grow into the person you wish to be.
Therapeutic Approach
I use an integrative approach encompassing person centred theory, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and transactional analysis (TA) where needed.
I recognise that each person is an individual and as an integrative counsellor I understand that there is not only one therapeutic approach which can help. In our work, I focus on listening to you, understanding what you are experiencing and from my knowledge and understanding of theory supporting you to work towards your goals.
Please have a look at my website for more information about me and how I work. If you feel I would be the right counsellor for you please get in touch either by email, SMS or WhatsApp and we can arrange an time to speak further.

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.
