Jennifer Phillips, BACP

Jennifer Phillips is a UK-licensed therapist with eight years of professional experience and holds the BACP credential (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). She supports people facing stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, infertility and family conflicts, alongside trauma and narcissistic abuse.

Her practice also covers self-esteem, grief, addictions, parenting and family problems, anger and career concerns, depression, and coping with major life changes. She works with a wide range of additional issues, including abandonment, blended family challenges, body image and codependency, control issues, fertility concerns, guilt and shame, hoarding, infidelity and jealousy, narcissism, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, panic attacks and postpartum depression.

Jennifer aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared honestly. She uses client-centered and mindfulness approaches to guide sessions, adapting techniques to each person’s needs and goals while encouraging practical steps toward relief and understanding.

She recognises that beginning therapy can take courage and is supportive of those who take that first step. Jennifer offers flexible ways to connect and works with clients both in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Integrating client-centered and mindfulness approaches in online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathetic space where the client’s own goals and insights lead the work. It helps people explore feelings, improve self-understanding and strengthen relationships by putting their experience at the centre of therapy.

Mindfulness therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices alongside reflective conversation. It supports people in managing stress, anxiety and strong emotions by building awareness of thoughts and bodily sensations and creating more moment-to-moment choice.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is handled collaboratively. Jennifer will work with each person to consider their needs, goals and preferences and tailor a blend of client-centered and mindfulness techniques that fit the situation.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter or more frequent connections are possible via live chat and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel, and they support ongoing access to registered professionals regardless of location.
