About Jennifer

Jennifer Borrell is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP, and brings a calm, person-focused manner to sessions.

She works from a client-centred approach. That means she follows the person in front of her, listens carefully, and focuses on what matters most to the individual. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas when they are helpful to tackle unhelpful thoughts and patterns.

Jennifer helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those facing family and parenting challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, eating and body image issues, and coping with life changes. ADHD, attachment and abandonment concerns, and relationship problems are also among her focus areas.

Sessions are aimed at identifying strengths and small, manageable steps forward. Conversations tend to be practical and down to earth, with an emphasis on what a person wants to change and how to get there. Jennifer aims to create space for people to tell their story and make sense of difficult feelings.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and Jennifer seeks to offer a steady, respectful presence while people work through what matters to them. To begin, clients follow the site process to match with her and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How client-centred work adapts to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what they hear and helps the person explore their own goals. This approach suits concerns like low self-esteem, grief, relationship difficulties and family stress because it focuses on understanding and personal strengths.

Jennifer also uses elements from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy when they fit the situation. These ideas help identify unhelpful thoughts and try small practical changes in how someone copes day to day. That combination can help with anxiety, anger, depression and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and adapt the way sessions run to match your needs, goals and preferences. It is a collaborative process where you try things and check whether they feel useful.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow check-ins from different locations. They can also make shorter, focused sessions more practical when time is limited.
