Jennifer Risebury, BACP

Jennifer Risebury is a BACP registered therapist based in the United Kingdom who offers person-centered and integrative support for people facing a range of life challenges. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK. Jennifer creates a non-judgmental, supportive space where individuals can safely explore thoughts and feelings related to anxiety, self-esteem, neurodiversity, and other personal difficulties.

Her approach is collaborative and tailored to the individual - she works alongside clients to reflect on their experience, unpack difficult emotions, and develop practical coping tools. Using a mix of therapeutic techniques, Jennifer helps people process feelings, build self-confidence, and develop greater emotional resilience so they can move forward in ways that feel authentic to them.

Jennifer aims to empower people to make lasting changes, regulate their emotions, and navigate life’s ups and downs with increased clarity and strength. She is responsive to messages and journal entries and checks in at various times throughout the day. If a message arrives after 8:30 pm she will do her best to reply but may respond the following morning, and on Sundays and some bank holidays replies may not come until the next working day.

To make therapy accessible Jennifer offers sessions via live chat, telephone calls, or video calls and tries to accommodate a range of schedules. The first session is an opportunity to get to know each other and agree on the best way to work together, and prospective clients are welcome to send a message or journal entry before that first meeting.

Approaches and Online Support for Emotional Wellbeing

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past and present relationship patterns shape emotional responses and sense of security. It can be helpful for people who struggle with abandonment, trust, or repeating relational dynamics. Client-Centered Therapy - sometimes called person-centered therapy - focuses on empathy, active listening, and the client’s own pace and priorities, supporting self-exploration and the development of self-worth. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and work through intense emotions, strengthen emotional awareness, and improve how they connect with others.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jennifer works collaboratively with people to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques as conversations and progress unfold. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy feels relevant and manageable for each person.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules, time zones, and mobility needs. For many, remote sessions make it easier to sustain regular appointments, access registered professionals from the United Kingdom and beyond, and integrate therapeutic work into busy lives.
