About Jennifer
Counsellor Jennifer Edwards is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with six years' experience. She works with adults on issues such as addiction, grief, stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, and low self-esteem. Sessions and communication are offered in English and she accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Jennifer practises Client-Centred Therapy, which means sessions are led by the client's concerns and priorities. She listens without judgement and helps people talk through feelings and decisions at their own pace. The first meetings usually focus on what matters most now and on small steps that feel manageable.
Her background includes work with people affected by bereavement and addiction and with those recovering from trauma and abuse. She also supports people dealing with life transitions such as pregnancy and childbirth, separation, blended family changes, and caregiving stress. Practical topics like smoking or vaping cessation and sleeping difficulties are within her remit.
Jennifer pays attention to relationship patterns and attachment issues that influence daily life. She helps people notice triggers, set boundaries, and try different ways of relating. Conversations can cover sexuality, LGBT concerns, and women's issues when these are the client's focus.

Client-led approaches and online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's concerns and preferences. The counsellor listens and reflects what is said so the client can make sense of feelings and choices. This approach suits issues like grief, relationship difficulties, anxiety and coping with life changes.The right approach is something to decide together. The counsellor will discuss aims, try different ways of working, and adjust the focus as needs change. That puts the client at the centre of planning and helps set practical next steps.
The original biography notes sessions can be offered online or by phone, but current formats should be confirmed before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, avoid travel, or have a shorter check-in when time is limited. Phone sessions may be useful when a video call is not practical. Confirm the exact session types and technical details when arranging the first appointment so they match everyday routines and commitments.
