About Jennifer

Jennifer Phillips is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and issues linked to infertility. Jennifer also works with people facing addictions, grief and the practical strains of life change.

She uses client-centred methods to help people talk through what matters most to them. That means sessions tend to focus on the person's perspective and what they want to change. She also draws on mindfulness approaches to help with anxiety, panic and ongoing stress. These tools are offered alongside conversational work about relationships and family challenges.

Jennifer has supported people dealing with abandonment, blended family issues and codependency. She helps those coping with fertility worries, postpartum depression and the fallout from infidelity or narcissistic dynamics. Practical problems such as hoarding, control issues and obsessive behaviours are also within her remit.

Sessions are straightforward and conversational. Jennifer aims to listen, reflect and help people consider small, manageable steps. Work often includes noticing patterns, experimenting with new responses and practicing mindful ways to reduce reactivity.

Many younger adults juggle study, first jobs and changing relationships. Jennifer has experience helping people navigate those early-adulthood pressures and the emotional fallout that can follow. To begin, readers are asked to use the site process to match and schedule an initial session.

How client-centred and mindfulness work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own priorities and perspective. Online sessions using this approach give space for people to describe what they are experiencing and decide what to work on. It can help with relationship worries, low self-esteem and the stress of early adulthood.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept up in them. Practising mindfulness can reduce acute anxiety, help with panic symptoms and make it easier to manage repetitive thinking patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. That collaborative planning can change as needs evolve.

Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people choose online work because it can fit around study, work and travel, and because shorter check-ins or phone sessions can be easier to fit into a busy day. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote use, helping clients practise skills between sessions and apply them to everyday situations.
