About Jennifer
Jennifer Phillips is a counsellor who uses a client-centred and mindful way of working. She keeps the focus on each person’s experience and helps them name what feels hard. Her approach aims to make talking easier and to build small, practical steps forward.
She has eight years of experience in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration. That background includes supporting people living with stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps those coping with trauma, abuse, and the particular strain of compassion fatigue.
How Jennifer works
Relationship and family matters are a regular part of her practice. She helps people navigate infidelity, jealousy, blended family issues, parenting strain and wider family problems. Work and life transitions are also a focus, including career worries and grief after loss.
Jennifer pays attention to patterns that keep people stuck. She addresses things like codependency, control issues, obsessive-compulsive behaviours, panic attacks and body image concerns. She also supports people dealing with fertility struggles, postpartum depression and addiction-related difficulties.
In sessions she aims to create a calm space for honest conversation. Mindfulness tools and client-led listening are used to reduce overwhelm and build awareness. She works with each person to find manageable steps that fit their life and goals.

Online support options
Client-centred and mindfulness approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor follows the person rather than directing them, helping them feel heard and understood. This approach is useful for worries about relationships, self-esteem and navigating life changes.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them. Short mindfulness exercises can reduce feelings of overwhelm and support work on anxiety, panic and compulsive behaviours. These tools are often practised alongside talking work to strengthen day-to-day coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and happens together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt the sessions. This collaborative approach helps make sure the work matches each person’s needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging which give practical flexibility. Video lets visual cues guide the conversation while phone calls need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
