About Jennifer

Jennifer Phillips is a counsellor who uses a client-centred and mindful approach to support people through stressful periods. She draws on eight years of experience in the United Kingdom to help people talk about anxiety, relationship struggles, grief and parenting concerns. She works with each person at their own pace and encourages practical steps alongside emotional processing.

Her practice focuses on common life pressures such as work stress, depression and coping with change.

Background and approach

She also addresses difficulties that come up around family problems, intimacy and self-esteem. Additional areas she supports include compulsive behaviours, panic attacks, postpartum depression and issues connected to fertility and abandonment. In sessions she aims to create an open, non-judgemental space so thoughts and feelings can be shared.

The client-centred approach means conversations shape the work, and the therapist follows what matters most to the person. Mindfulness techniques are used to help manage intrusive thoughts, reduce reactivity and build tolerance for difficult emotions. Practical tools and short exercises are often introduced between meetings to help people test changes in their daily life.

Jennifer encourages clear, achievable goals and regular check-ins to track progress. She explains things plainly and offers steady support during transitions and relationship setbacks. People seeking help for stress, addictions, trauma-related concerns or parenting strains will find an easy-going style and steady presence.

The focus is on making therapy useful and manageable for real life.

Online support

How client-centred and mindfulness work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the person's priorities. In practice this means meetings adapt to what the client brings, helping them name feelings and decide what to work on next. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelming thoughts and increase present-moment awareness. These techniques can help with anxiety, panic symptoms and managing intrusive memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms and daily life, then together choose what to try first. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust methods if something does not feel helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let people talk face to face when bandwidth and environment allow. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or suit those who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging help people keep a regular connection and can be useful for brief updates or between-session support. These options make therapy more flexible for work, family and busy schedules, while registered or accredited professionals guide the therapeutic plan.
