About Jennifer

Jennifer Gilroy helps people address stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and depression using a person-centred approach. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

Jennifer prioritises clear, straightforward conversations. Sessions focus on what is happening now and practical ways to cope. She listens to how day-to-day pressures affect thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and supports people to try small, achievable changes.

Her work includes supporting people with relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, grief and family problems. She also works with issues such as self-esteem, anger, eating difficulties and coping with life changes. Additional areas seen include abandonment, attachment issues, dissociation and post-traumatic stress.

Jennifer uses a mix of approaches, including Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy. These methods are applied in straightforward ways, for example by practising new thinking patterns, mindfulness exercises and short-term goal setting.

Sessions are conducted in English and Jennifer accepts international clients. She asks people to select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session to begin.

Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience without judgement. It helps when someone needs time to speak about difficult feelings and to be heard as they work out what matters to them.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and helps people try different ways of thinking and behaving. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and some stress-related problems.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce overwhelm and increase calm. It can be useful for stress, rumination and supporting practical day-to-day coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then try approaches that fit the person’s needs. This is a collaborative process and can be reviewed as therapy progresses.

Please check which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not specify formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed, while still letting the person keep continuity with the same counsellor.
