About Jenna

Jenna Winstanley works with people on stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, career issues and coping with life changes. She uses an integrative approach and works collaboratively with clients to set and review goals. Jenna is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience.

She aims to help people when life feels overwhelming or stuck. Sessions focus on noticing patterns, exploring what matters to the individual and identifying practical next steps. Conversations are guided by the client's priorities and progress is checked regularly.

Jenna explains things plainly and keeps the pace suited to each person. She offers space to look at attachment issues, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose and self-love alongside more common concerns such as stress and anxiety. Work can include talking through recent events and reflecting on earlier experiences that continue to affect current life.

Her style is collaborative and respectful of personal autonomy. Together with the client she clarifies aims for counselling and adapts the work as those aims change. Sessions aim to make difficult feelings more manageable and to build useful ways of coping.

Jenna practises in the United Kingdom and carries the BACP credential listed above. She works in English and does not take international clients. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session through the online service.

Therapeutic approaches used and how online meetings work

Jenna describes herself as an integrative counsellor, which means she draws on different evidence-based techniques to suit the person. Integrative work often combines talking therapies with practical exercises to help with stress, anxiety and relationship problems and supports reflection on past experiences that affect current life.

Another commonly used approach in integrative practice is attachment-focused work, which looks at patterns in close relationships and how they influence feelings and behaviour. This approach can help with shame, loneliness and difficulties forming close bonds.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Jenna will discuss options with the client and decide together which approaches fit the person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and the plan can change as the client progresses.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If a quieter environment or less screen time is helpful, options can be discussed at first contact and adapted to practical needs.
