                                              Difficulties from the past, painful experiences in the present, or worries about the future may leave people distressed and unable to cope with day-to-day life. Counselling provides an opportunity for people to talk through their difficulties and problems in a safe space, with the support of a trained counsellor.




                                              The Natural Health Centre has two Counsellors and a Counselling Psychologist.

                                              Jennie has been a professional counsellor since 1997.

                                              For me, the client remains central to the counselling process; and for those unfamiliar with counselling I aim to ensure that they will feel fully informed and reassuringly supported through the initial steps of the counselling experience.  

                                              Training and experience

                                              I am a Senior Accredited Member of the BACP
                                              (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and am registered with the UKRCP (United Kingdom Register of Counsellors and Therapists).

                                              I have over 20 years of experience working as a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist.  I have worked in Colleges of Further Education, Universities, The Foreign and Commonwealth Office; and also in Private Practice where I provide counselling for individuals (from age 16 to 90+), for couples, as well as for Police Forces in the West Midlands and Wales, and for a number of different organisations.

                                              As a Chartered Counselling Psychologist I have received
                                              extensive training in psychology together with further training in
                                              Psychotherapeutic and Counselling Psychology.  I have been trained to offer
                                              counselling in a range of psychological therapies including psychodynamic,
                                              relational, humanistic and cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT).  
                                              I work integratively and tailor my approach to fit individual needs,
                                              rather than try to make the individual fit the theory.
