About

About Jennifer

Jennifer Edwards is a BACP counsellor who offers person-centred support for adults facing addiction, grief and boundary concerns. She writes in a calm, down-to-earth way and focuses on what each person brings to the room. Sessions move at the client’s pace and are directed by their needs and goals.

In practice Jennifer listens closely and reflects back what matters most to the client. She helps people make sense of strong emotions, identify triggers, and try new coping strategies.

Background and approach

The aim is to help people feel more in control and regain a sense of themselves after loss or difficult change. Her background includes six years of work in areas such as bereavement support and addiction recovery. That experience informs how she responds to stress, depression, bipolar challenges, sleep problems and anger.

She also supports people with relationship and intimacy-related concerns and issues around sexuality and self-esteem. Jennifer works with people navigating parenting challenges, blended family dynamics and caregiver stress. She also offers help for those dealing with communication problems, divorce and separation, and the lasting effects of trauma and abuse.

Additional focuses include smoking and vaping cessation, social anxiety and attachment issues. People who identify as LGBT are referenced in her areas of interest and she offers inclusive, non-judgemental work. Sessions are conducted in English and she is based in the United Kingdom.

Online support

Client-centred care adapted for online sessions

Client-centred Therapy places the person rather than the technique at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without directing the agenda, reflects what the client brings, and supports them to find their own solutions. This approach is often helpful for issues like grief, addiction, low self-esteem and relationship concerns because it focuses on the client’s experience and pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences, then agree how to proceed. That collaborative planning makes it easier to test different ways of working and to adjust the focus as things change.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions more easily into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online or phone sessions can make it simpler to keep regular weekly appointments, join from elsewhere in the UK or overseas, and use shorter check-ins when that suits a day’s schedule. Because the exact session formats are not fully specified in the biography, confirm the current options before booking so the arrangements match your routine and needs.
