About Jenny
Jenny Cleary is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has nine years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and depression. Jenny also works with issues like addiction, grief, parenting strain, career concerns and challenges faced by LGBT people and those with ADHD.
Her background in nature and art shapes a calm, grounded way of working. She draws on person-centred practice and mixes in approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. Sessions usually start by looking at values and what matters, then move into practical steps that feel achievable.
Jenny aims to be straightforward while respecting a client’s pace. She often encourages noticing the body as well as thoughts and feelings, and uses creative ways to help people name and shift patterns that keep them stuck. This is useful for people dealing with low self-worth, relationship problems or major life changes.
She also supports people coping with medical or caregiving stress, chronic illness, adoption and attachment concerns, and issues around commitment or control. Work can include practical strategies for sleep, eating and managing anger, as well as longer conversations about identity and belonging.
Clients can expect a mix of listening, reflective questions and hands-on techniques to practise between sessions. The focus is on small, steady changes that fit into everyday life rather than quick fixes.
Therapeutic approaches used in online work
Jenny uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values, even when feelings or thoughts get in the way. ACT is practical for young adults wrestling with direction, comparison and life changes.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns in intimacy and trust. This can be useful for people who struggle with closeness, abandonment fears or repeated relationship problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That means trying approaches and adapting them if something does not fit, rather than expecting one method to fix everything.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into study or work schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are busy. It can also let people use quieter surroundings or audio-only calls when video is difficult. Registered professionals will help match session length and frequency to what suits everyday life.
