About Jenny
Jenny Doig is a counsellor with 22 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and she focuses on practical help for stress and anxiety alongside other life challenges. Jenny aims to meet people where they are and make the first steps feel manageable.
She draws on a mix of approaches to shape sessions around each person's needs. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with time to reflect on feelings and to try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Jenny pays attention to patterns that come from past relationships and attachment, and she helps people notice thoughts that keep them stuck. People come to her for many reasons including grief, anger, depression, relationship concerns, addiction and issues around intimacy or self‑esteem.
She also supports those facing career changes, parenting strain, sleep or eating difficulties, and the long-term effects of trauma and abuse. Jenny works respectfully with LGBT concerns and helps people coping with illness or bereavement. Her style is warm and down to earth.
Sessions combine listening, practical exercises, and space to talk things through at a steady pace. The aim is to build clearer ways of coping and small changes that feel doable. Jenny offers a collaborative way of working.
Together with each person she sets priorities and reviews what helps most, adjusting the plan as progress is made. This keeps therapy focused and relevant to everyday life.
Approach and online therapy options
Jenny works from a few clear therapeutic perspectives. Attachment‑based work looks at patterns from past relationships and how they shape current feelings and reactions, which can help with anxiety, relationship strain and trust issues. Client‑centred therapy gives space for people to talk without judgement and helps them find their own solutions, useful when someone needs to process grief or life transition. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small, practical changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, and then tailor sessions so methods match what feels most useful. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text‑based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversations, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is suited to shorter check‑ins, and messaging can be used for ongoing support between calls. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on useful, practical steps.
