Jennie Holloway, NCPS

Jennie Holloway is an integrative counsellor based in the United Kingdom with over six years of professional experience. She is an accredited member of the NCPS, demonstrating recognised training in counselling and psychotherapy, and has worked across school-based and community settings supporting both young people and adults.

Her experience includes a role in a pupil referral unit where she provided counselling to pupils who could not attend mainstream school as well as to their parents. That work brought a wide range of emotional and behavioural issues into focus, including depression, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, bereavement, refusal to engage with school, abuse, and trauma. Earlier training in Drawing and Talking therapy also informs her practice with children and families.

Jennie’s interest in counselling grew from her own experience of grief, which sparked a commitment to help others navigate loss, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, and other life challenges. She describes her practice as non-directive and tailored to the individual, adapting techniques from client-centred, cognitive behavioural, and psychodynamic traditions to meet each person’s needs. Jennie emphasises listening, trust, and collaboration to help clients explore where they are now and where they want to be, whether they are struggling with specific issues or unsure what the next step should be.

Approaches and online support tailored to you

Client-centred work focuses on understanding the person from their own perspective and creating a supportive environment where strengths and choices are explored. This approach is useful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and navigating life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and offers practical strategies to manage anxiety, stress, and unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with problem-solving, mood regulation, and breaking cycles of worry or avoidance.

Mindfulness therapy encourages present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of experience, which can reduce rumination and improve coping with stress and emotional overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennie works with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adapting methods over time so the therapeutic plan matches each person’s needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Those options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, connect across distances, and continue work consistently, while still working with licensed professionals who tailor sessions to individual circumstances.
