About Jenna

Jenna Winstanley is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, career uncertainty and coping with life changes. Jenna also focuses on attachment issues, guilt and shame, loneliness and questions about life purpose and self-love.

Jenna practises an integrative approach that blends different evidence-based techniques to fit the person in front of her. Sessions begin by clarifying what the client wants to work on and setting simple goals to guide the work. She uses conversational, reflective methods to help people notice patterns and make small, practical changes in day-to-day life.

In sessions Jenna encourages people to talk through current problems and past experiences that influence how they relate to others. She pays attention to attachment and relational patterns and how these affect confidence, trust and decision-making. Work can include noticing habits, trying out new ways of responding and checking what feels useful between meetings.

Jenna emphasises collaboration and respects a client’s pace and choices. Goals are reviewed regularly so the work stays relevant and focused. The practical aim is to reduce the weight of immediate problems and support clearer thinking about next steps in work and life.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and cost varies with location.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Jenna describes an integrative practice that draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to suit what each person needs. One common strand focuses on recognising and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce anxiety and stress. This involves practical steps such as identifying triggers, testing out new responses and reviewing what works.

Another strand pays attention to attachment and relational patterns. This helps people understand how past relationships shape current trust, boundaries and self-esteem, and supports clearer choices in personal and work relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenna will discuss options with the client, consider their goals and preferences, and decide together which techniques to try. That collaborative process shapes the focus and pace of sessions.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins when needed. It can also let someone choose audio-only meetings if they prefer a shorter, less bandwidth-heavy check-in rather than being on camera.
