Therapeutic approaches and online options

Jenna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a way that is practical and straightforward. One common approach focuses on exploring attachment patterns - this looks at how early relationships influence current feelings and relationship habits, and can help with loneliness, trust and closeness issues. Another approach helps people unpack guilt, shame and low self-worth by gently examining the stories they tell about themselves and practising new, kinder ways of thinking and acting.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jenna will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs and pace. She reviews progress together and adapts the way she works so it stays useful and relevant.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is helpful for a face-to-face feel when discussing complex issues. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing, need quick check-ins, or want flexibility around work and daily life. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
