About Jennifer
Jennifer Cromar is a counsellor with BACP registration and 18 years of experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, depression and major life changes. She aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and respectful.
Jennifer adapts her approach to each person. She listens first, then helps set goals that fit everyday life. She often includes creative ways of working, such as writing or art, when that suits the person.
Background and approach
Her sessions focus on practical skills as well as exploring feelings. Cognitive behavioural techniques may be used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small experiments. Emotionally focused ideas can help people notice and name core emotional patterns.
She also draws on client-centred and Jungian thinking to encourage self-understanding and personal meaning. That mix can help with long-standing patterns such as attachment worries, abandonment concerns or body image issues. It can also support people coping with chronic illness, caregiver stress or bereavement.
Jennifer treats each conversation with sensitivity and aims to tailor dialogue to a person’s needs. She supports people who want practical change, deeper insight, or a combination of both. The focus is on building skills and confidence to move forward.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Jennifer often uses client-centred work to build a trusting, person-led conversation. This approach focuses on the individual's experience and aims to help them feel heard and understood, which can be useful for people coping with stress or life transitions.She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT tends to be practical and skill-based, helping people try small changes that can reduce anxiety and improve daily routines.
Emotionally-focused ideas are used to help people identify and name core emotions and respond differently to relationship or attachment patterns. This can be helpful for those dealing with abandonment concerns or repeated emotional difficulties.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about options, try things out and adjust methods based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. Clients are invited to shape the work so it feels relevant and manageable.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls work well for deeper dialogue and visual connection. Phone sessions can suit people who prefer not to be on camera or need a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief updates, reflective writing or when someone wants to work between sessions. Together these formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and day-to-day life.
