Hello there, my name is Jennifer. The core of my Psychotherapy work is Humanistic, Person Centred and sometimes incorporates aspects of CBT.  I offer a safe, confidential and non judgmental space for solution focused brief therapy, long and open term, to help you work through issues. All sessions are conducted either via a secure telephone or video calls and I work with clients on an individual basis to suit their needs because I understand that all clients are different. I start with gentle probing initially to build trust.

I understand that human beings are wired to connect with each other but life trials can be overwhelming sometimes leading to anxiety, depression and feeling lost and empty. Being in such painful place can be confusing and stressful. So, I will support you to grow awareness of what’s going on in your emotions, and your thinking. I can offer a warm friendly space for you to explore your thoughts and emotions safely, allowing you to gain clarity and begin to process. 

My therapy sessions are conducted with empathy, congruence and acceptance of you. These conditions enables me to value whatever unique experience you bring. I’m committed to providing environment that is centred on you and being present. Being able to open up and be vulnerable with all your issues can be daunting and I champion equality, inclusion and respect for all.

Enhancing coping skills and increasing problem-solving capacity and I also incorporate psycho education into  sessions and anxiety workbook to help clients work through their negative thoughts patterns. 

I have Diploma in Counselling & Psychotherapy. BSc in Therapeutic Counselling & currently studying for my MSc in Psychology of Mental Health and Wellbeing. A Registered Member of Â鶹ԭ´´ ( British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy) A member of BAATN (Black & Asian Therapist Network). Member of CTUK (Counsellors Together UK)
