About Jenny

Jenny Weston is a counsellor registered with NCPS in the United Kingdom and has four years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and low self-esteem. She also focuses on communication problems, feelings of guilt and shame, loneliness, panic attacks, and social anxiety.

Jenny treats people as the experts on their own lives. She listens to what has happened and what keeps causing pain. Sessions are practical and straightforward. Clients can expect to talk through what they are experiencing and to identify small, manageable steps forward.

Her way of working draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Jenny uses tools that help people understand unhelpful thoughts and reactions. She also supports people to rebuild confidence and cope with day-to-day stressors.

In sessions she pays attention to life context and what has shaped each person’s responses. She aims to help people notice patterns, practise different responses, and try new ways of relating to themselves and others. That can include learning calmer ways to respond to panic or reducing how much shame drives behaviour.

People who choose to work with her begin by describing the problem and their goals. From there they set priorities together and try practical strategies between sessions. Jenny’s approach keeps the work focused and doable while recognising how hard it can be to change long-held habits.

Evidence-based approaches and online sessions

Jenny works with approaches grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques. One common strand is helping people spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. This involves naming the thoughts that fuel anxiety, guilt or shame and testing whether they match the facts. It is useful for stress, social anxiety and low mood.

Another approach focuses on practical skills to manage physical reactions such as panic. This includes simple breathing and grounding strategies and short behavioural steps to reduce avoidance. That kind of work helps people feel more able to face feared situations without being overwhelmed.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jenny will listen to what you want to change and suggest methods that fit your goals and preferences. Together you decide which techniques to try and how quickly to move through them.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can use remote sessions to keep the work practical and focused while adapting to each person’s daily routine.
