About Jenna
Jenna Winstanley is a counsellor who helps people facing stress and anxiety. She also supports those struggling with relationships, low self-esteem, career uncertainty and major life changes. Jenna writes in a warm, straightforward way and aims to make sessions easy to follow for people who feel overwhelmed.
She offers a calm space to talk through what feels heavy. Jenna uses curiosity and compassion to help people reflect on patterns that might be holding them back.
Background and approach
She works at the client’s pace and respects their choices about where to focus. In sessions she and the client set clear, practical goals and check progress regularly. This keeps the work relevant and focused on what the person wants to change.
Topics commonly explored include attachment issues, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose and self-love. Jenna has three years' experience and holds BACP registration, which is noted as her professional credential. She practises in the United Kingdom and sees people in English.
Her approach is collaborative - she listens, asks helpful questions and offers ideas to try between sessions. People who come to her often want to reduce day-to-day stress, manage anxious thoughts, rebuild confidence or make sense of a career shift. Sessions aim to leave people with clearer next steps and tools they can use in everyday life.
Approaches that help with anxiety and life changes
Jenna uses evidence-based techniques that help people manage worry and make changes in their lives. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviours and testing small, manageable alternatives. This helps reduce anxious thinking and creates room for different choices.Another frequent method emphasises exploring early attachment patterns and current relationship habits. Working on these connections can help people understand why certain situations trigger strong emotions and how to respond differently. Both approaches aim to give practical tools as well as clearer self-understanding.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenna will collaborate with each person to choose which techniques suit their needs and goals. She discusses options, checks how methods feel in practice, and adjusts the plan as the work progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video calls offer a standard therapy experience, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging allows ongoing reflection between sessions. These options provide flexibility so people can pick what works best for them and their schedule.
