About Jennifer
Jennifer Phillips uses a client-centred way of working to help people feel heard and understood. She is a BACP counsellor with eight years of experience. Her style aims to make it easier to say difficult things and begin practical changes.
She focuses on everyday struggles such as stress, anxiety and depression. Relationship and family difficulties are part of her work. She also supports people facing trauma, complex abuse, and intimacy-related problems.
Background and approach
Jennifer helps with parenting strain, grief, and compassion fatigue. She offers support around fertility concerns, postpartum depression and issues like body image or control problems. Addictions, obsessive and compulsive patterns, panic attacks and anger are also within her focus.
Her approach is straightforward and warm. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. Mindfulness Therapy is used to help with grounding and coping when emotions feel overwhelming.
Sessions aim to be collaborative. Jennifer listens first, then works with people to set small goals. This can include trying short practices between sessions, or changing how someone responds to stress.
If someone wants to start, the process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling. The therapist accepts international clients and runs sessions from the United Kingdom, with arrangements made after initial contact.

How Jennifer works online
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice thoughts and sensations without getting swept away by them. Short exercises and grounded breathing are often used to reduce anxiety and manage panic symptoms or strong emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals and practical preferences. Together they choose which methods to try and adjust them as therapy proceeds so the plan fits the client’s life.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people try mindfulness exercises between sessions and build new habits in everyday routines.
