About Jenny

Jenny Doig is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 22 years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, and anger, among other life challenges. Her approach aims to make conversations straightforward and useful from the first meeting.

Jenny keeps sessions centred on the person in front of her. She uses a mix of client-centred listening and practical tools to help people notice patterns that feed frustration and low mood. She also draws on attachment and cognitive approaches to look at how relationships and thoughts influence feelings like anger.

Sessions involve talking through specific situations, naming what makes feelings escalate, and trying simple steps to respond differently. Mindfulness techniques are offered when helpful to reduce reactivity and improve focus. Existential themes come into play when people are grappling with meaning, choice or big life changes.

Jenny has worked across many settings during her career and supports people with a wide range of concerns including addictions, relationship strain, parenting stress, and coping with life changes. She also addresses things such as body image, codependency, and compassion fatigue.

Her style is practical and respectful. She helps people set clear goals and reviews progress as therapy continues. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the service.

How her approaches fit with online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past and current relationships affect feelings and behaviour. It helps when anger links to hurt, mistrust or fears of abandonment by others. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on careful listening and the client's own aims, letting the person lead the pace and topics of sessions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) examines unhelpful thoughts and teaches practical steps to change reactions and behaviours.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jenny will discuss what matters to the client and try different techniques to see what helps most. That collaborative process shapes goals and how sessions are run together.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking so they match daily life and routines. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Talk with Jenny about the practical arrangements that suit you and how to build therapy into your week.
