I’m Jennie, an integrative BACP counsellor based in Frodsham, Cheshire. I offer face-to-face counselling in a dedicated garden room, and online sessions across the UK. I offer a calm, thoughtful space for when life feels overwhelming, confusing, or emotionally difficult to manage on your own. People often contact me when they feel stuck in anxious or self-critical thought patterns, are struggling to switch off, or are coping on the outside while feeling unsettled inside. Some people come when they want space to make sense of past experiences and understand themselves more deeply.

Sometimes life can feel overwhelming. We feel exhausted, stressed, unable to switch off, unsure of our direction, our identity, or there’s something just not quite right.

Do you feel like you're constantly having to adapt and please others, to feel ‘good enough’? Do you feel that if you were to show your honest and real self, you won’t be accepted or loved. This can be a lonely and desperate place to be, that will leave you feeling empty and exhausted all at once. Accepting who you are is an important inner journey that we will take together in our counselling sessions. I will support you in exploring many aspects of both you and your life so far, including your experiences, your family of origin, your personality type, your desires, your expectations, your passions and your fears.

Many people come to therapy during the messy reality of trying to become, or being, a parent - navigating fertility treatment, pregnancy, birth trauma, relationship strain, separation, blended families, or co- parenting.
I offer steady, relational therapy for people affected by the complexities of family life - raising children, longing for them, grieving losses, navigating separation, or trying to understand the family they came from. Together we explore relationship patterns, identity, and the emotional load you’ve been carrying for too long.

Empathy and validation are the key foundations of my work and I think finding an understanding of a clients perspective helps them in turn to find solutions for peace of mind for and within themselves. Working in this client centred way has been incredibly fulfilling these last few years and having my own practice allows for real freedom to choose how we work together.

People access therapy for many different reasons, but generally we are most likely to reach out for help when our usual coping strategies are no longer effective. At these times it is not always helpful or possible to turn to family or friends, and their well-meaning support may not always help. I will provide a calm and confidential space where you will be able to safely share what is troubling you.

Parenting Counsellors
What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
