About Jennie

Jennie Holloway is a counsellor who focuses on person-centred work and practical strategies. She is NCPS credentialed and brings six years of professional experience. Jennie wants to make the first steps feel easier for people who are overwhelmed or unsure where to start. She aims to listen, understand and help people clarify what matters to them.

Jennie draws on client-centred principles alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness. She adapts sessions to what each person needs, avoiding a one-size-fits-all approach. That might mean gently reflecting what someone says, trying simple coping strategies, or practising short mindfulness exercises together.

Her background includes counselling work in a pupil referral unit where she supported parents and children unable to attend mainstream school. That role involved helping with issues such as depression, anxiety, anger, bereavement, refusal to attend school, abuse and trauma. Earlier experience also included Drawing and Talking therapy.

Jennie lists a broad range of concerns she works with. These include stress, anxiety, family and parenting matters, self-esteem, life changes, addictions, intimacy problems, sleeping difficulties and ADHD. She also notes additional focuses such as communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, loneliness, money worries, obsessive-compulsive behaviours and seasonal affective disorder.

In sessions she aims to give a non-judgemental space to talk, consider where a person is now and where they want to be, and try approaches that fit the individual. She encourages people to take small steps and to notice gradual changes over time.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Jennie draws on client-centred work, cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness so sessions focus on the person and practical changes. Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and reflecting back what someone says to help them feel understood and to find their own answers. It is useful for building trust and exploring how feelings affect daily life.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and introduces simple exercises to test unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and unhelpful behaviours by breaking issues into manageable steps.

Mindfulness Therapy uses short attention and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and improve focus. These exercises can be useful for stress, sleep problems and coping with strong emotions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jennie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try methods that fit their needs. The process is collaborative and may change over time as goals become clearer.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking since the profile does not list them explicitly. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, remove travel time, allow shorter check-ins around a workday and make it simpler to continue while living in another country. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often adapt exercises and practical tasks so they work well in an online setting.
