About Jennifer
Counsellor and BACP member Jennifer Phillips has eight years of practice supporting people in the United Kingdom with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns. She lists trauma and narcissistic abuse, fertility and infertility issues, and a range of mood and coping difficulties among her main areas of work.
Jennifer uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on the person's own experience. Sessions begin by listening to what matters most and by following the client's pace. She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions and to develop practical ways to respond to them.
Sessions commonly cover relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, anger, grief and workplace stress. She also addresses more specific problems such as obsessive-compulsive patterns, panic attacks, postpartum depression and problems linked to infidelity or jealousy. Parenting and blended family tensions are included in her list of concerns.
Jennifer describes a straightforward approach in the room: she invites people to talk through what is happening and to try small, practical exercises when useful. She aims to support clearer thinking about choices and reactions rather than offering quick fixes. The tone is direct and conversational.
People using her service are asked to follow the booking steps set out on the platform. Sessions are offered in English. International clients are accepted, and session costs vary by location and subscription plan.
How her counselling approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre. Online, this means the counsellor focuses on listening, reflecting what has been said and following the client's priorities. This approach is often used for relationship concerns, anxiety and grief because it supports open discussion and clearer thinking about choices.Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts, emotions and bodily reactions without judgement. Online sessions can include short guided mindfulness exercises and simple practices to try between meetings. This can be useful for stress, panic symptoms and self-esteem work.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree a way of working together. That conversation helps decide whether to use more client-centred listening, mindfulness practices or a blend of both.
The profile does not list specific session formats. Please confirm the available session options before booking. In general, online counselling can fit around work or family routines, reduce time spent travelling and make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins or regular weekly sessions. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to keep continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult to arrange.
