About Jennifer

Jennifer Gilroy is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and depression while also addressing relationship and intimacy-related concerns.

Jennifer uses client-centred work alongside practical methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. Sessions aim to help people notice patterns, try small changes, and build clearer ways of coping with difficult feelings. She also uses solution-focused and trauma-focused approaches when they fit the issue.

In practice she offers straightforward conversations about what is worrying someone now. She listens for the problems that make daily life harder and helps set short, manageable goals. That might include trying new ways of handling anxious thoughts, practising grounding or mindfulness, or planning steps to repair relationship difficulties.

Her additional interests include attachment and abandonment issues, dissociation, post-traumatic stress, self-harm, and the aftermath of sexual assault and domestic violence. She also works with concerns such as grief, self-esteem, eating issues, anger, and compassion fatigue.

Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. The service works via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time; costs vary by location. To begin, people are invited to use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and book a first session.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Client-centred therapy focuses on conversations that put the person’s experience first. The therapist listens without directing the story and supports clients to find their own solutions and priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical experiments to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.

Finding the right approach is something she treats as a shared process. The therapist will discuss options, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on the client’s goals and preferences. Progress is reviewed together so the work stays relevant to what the client needs now.

Confirm the current session options before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or making it easier to join from a quieter place. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets and mindfulness practices for remote sessions to keep the work practical and applicable to everyday life.
