Jenny Anderson

Online therapy, Individual and Couples Counselling/Psychotherapy, supervision and specialist obesity therapy. Flexible appointments day time and evenings.

I am a BACP accredited Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Supervisor with extensive experience of working with individuals and couples with a wide range of issues. In addition I also have specialist advanced training in obesity management. My experience enables me to provide a warm, confidential and supportive approach in helping you to work through your difficulties.

I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and am committed to ethical practice.

How Counselling/Psychotherapy can help you

I offer you a safe and confidential relationship without judgement, supporting you in discussing your concerns which may be difficult to share with friends and family.

I can help you to see things more clearly enabling you to explore your own choices. This will allow you to make changes in your life or come to terms with difficult experiences.

I can also help you manage issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, relationship problems, bereavement, trauma, weight problems, binge eating, anger, work or health problems.

The way I work

My approach is integrative enabling me to offer a range of therapeutic approaches to meet your individual needs. I place importance on developing a trusting relationship enabling you to work through your issues, regularly reviewing our work together to help you to achieve your full potential.

I have a special interest and experience of working with obesity, chronic dieting and binge eating and I hold a certificate in Practitioner Skills in Obesity Management with the National Centre for Eating Disorders. 

I offer Short term, long term, time limited and intensive crisis therapy to suit your requirements.

I work with individuals and couples over 18 at my private practice.

Working with obesity and binge eating

I can help you to work towards a balanced approach to eating and managing your weight without dieting, improving your relationship with food while addressing unhelpful thinking and habits. I will also help you to address body image issues and low self-esteem. This is not a quick fix but you will learn how to make lasting changes. 

Working with couples

I provide counselling to couples in heterosexual, same sex relationships and blended families. I also work with couples in crisis requiring a more intensive therapy. If required I am able to provide counselling with a sexual emphasis.

My work with couples allows you both space to share your feelings without fear of judgement. I provide a supportive relationship in which you can feel safe to work through your difficulties. This will increase your awareness of how you relate to each other to improve your communication and resolve conflict, helping you to form a new and more positive relationship for the future.

If you feel you no longer want to stay in the relationship I can help you to explore your own choices and to find a way of moving forwards. I can also help you to work through difficult decisions concerning any children you may have and to manage the transition to parenting as separated parents.
