Jennifer Edwards, BACP

Jennifer Edwards is a person-centred counsellor who supports adults navigating addiction, grief, and difficulties with boundaries. She works from an inclusive, non-judgemental stance, creating a space where people can bring their experiences, emotions, and questions while she offers steady presence and empathetic listening.

Her practice follows a client-led approach, meaning sessions are guided by what the client most needs at that time. Jennifer helps people make sense of their thoughts and feelings, identify emotional triggers, and explore new ways of coping. She also offers practical guidance around setting boundaries in relationships and at work, and gentle support through loss or major life changes.

Jennifer holds BACP accreditation - membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her commitment to recognised professional standards. With experience in addiction recovery, bereavement support, and general emotional wellbeing, she works at the client’s pace to help restore a greater sense of control and self-direction.

Sessions are available online or by phone to fit different schedules and needs. Counselling typically involves regular one-hour sessions, and Jennifer aims to walk alongside clients with empathy, care, and respect as they take steps toward change.

Client-Centered Care and Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy, also known as person-centred counselling, is at the heart of Jennifer Edwards’ approach. This method focuses on listening deeply and responding without judgement so clients can explore their feelings and priorities at their own pace. It is well suited to people handling grief, addiction recovery, boundary setting, and transitions where self-understanding and personal agency are central.

Jennifer’s work emphasises collaboration - she and the client decide together which ways of working feel most helpful. Determining the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and she adapts sessions based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences to find the best fit.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for this style of work. Video calls and phone sessions allow for real-time conversation and emotional connection, while live chat and text-based messaging provide more flexible, shorter-form contact when schedules or circumstances make synchronous sessions difficult. These options help make regular, consistent support more accessible for a range of lifestyles and locations.
