About

About Jenny

Jenny Doig is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 22 years of professional experience and BACP registration. She aims to offer respectful, sensitive and compassionate support. She encourages people who feel unsure about starting therapy and acknowledges that taking the first step often takes courage.

Jenny works with stress and anxiety, depression, coping with grief and loss, and anger. She also helps people facing relationship problems, family concerns, addiction issues and difficulties with intimacy.

Background and approach

Additional areas include self-esteem, career questions, ADHD and coping with life changes. Her approach is flexible and personalised. Conversations and treatment plans are shaped to meet each person’s specific needs.

Sessions tend to focus on what matters most to the individual and on practical ways to make small changes. Jenny draws on several therapeutic styles, including attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques. She also uses mindfulness and existential perspectives when they suit a person’s goals.

Together these help with understanding patterns, changing unhelpful thoughts and finding new ways to cope. People meet Jenny to talk through immediate difficulties and to build longer-term skills. She aims to create a calm space for exploring feelings and making decisions about next steps.

Online support

How Jenny’s approaches translate to online work

Jenny often draws on client-centred listening that prioritises the person’s agenda and pace. This approach focuses on empathy and understanding, helping people feel heard while they talk about what matters most. It suits people who need time to reflect and to be listened to without pressure.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. CBT includes simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and to build new coping habits. This approach can be useful for anxiety, low mood, stress and some patterns that feel stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jenny will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and help decide whether a client-centred, CBT or attachment-based emphasis best fits. The decision is collaborative and may change as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use audio-only options when video is not convenient. Ask about the available formats when you arrange the first appointment to find what suits your routine and aims.
