About Jennifer
Jennifer Anderson is a counsellor with seven years' experience supporting people through stress and anxiety. She works in a warm, straightforward way and believes each person knows their own story best. She acknowledges how hard it can feel to start therapy and aims to make that first step easier to take.
She often helps people facing addictions and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with family conflict, grief, low self-esteem and the everyday pressures of life.
Background and approach
Her work includes supporting people affected by trauma, depression, bipolar mood difficulties and ADHD. Jennifer uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns.
She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Her client-centred stance means she prioritises the person’s own goals and pace. Sessions are conversational and practical.
Jennifer listens first, then helps people set small, achievable steps. She offers motivational interviewing when someone needs help finding inner reasons to make a change, and existential ideas when people want to talk about meaning and values. She works with people across a wide range of concerns including intimacy issues, parenting strains, career stress, chronic illness, and substance use problems.
Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients. Jennifer holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Approaches that fit your life and online sessions
Jennifer commonly uses attachment-based therapy to look at how early and important relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand why they react in certain ways and supports changes in how they connect with others.She also uses client-centred therapy which foregrounds the person's own goals and pace. Sessions focus on listening, reflecting what matters to the client, and building on strengths they already have. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical steps to reduce anxiety and stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist discusses options and adjusts methods based on a person's needs, goals and preferences. This collaboration helps shape a plan that feels manageable and relevant.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful, while phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit short check-ins, quick reflections or people who prefer not to use video. These options help therapy fit around work, caregiving or other commitments and make it easier to keep continuity between sessions.
