About Jennifer
Jennifer Gourley is a counsellor who helps people cope with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship concerns. She supports those facing big life changes and common worries such as feeling isolated or unsure about purpose. Jennifer works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English.
Her style is warm and person-focused. She listens without judgement and aims to make conversations straightforward and respectful. Sessions are shaped around what each person brings, with space to talk through difficult feelings at a pace that feels right.
Background and approach
Jennifer uses a client-centred approach, which puts the person’s experience at the heart of therapy. That means she follows the client’s lead, reflects what she hears, and helps people find their own solutions. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, relationship tensions, self-worth issues and coping with change.
Across 11 years of work she has supported people dealing with a wide range of concerns. These include abandonment worries, communication problems, blended family issues, substance-related difficulties, body image, hoarding and caregiver stress. She also works with people processing divorce, forgiveness, guilt and life-direction questions.
Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Jennifer asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin, and therapy is provided through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
Client-centred care and online support
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than a set technique. The counsellor listens actively, reflects what she hears and helps clients find their own direction. This approach often suits people dealing with anxiety, relationship tension, low self-worth and life transitions because it lets them set the pace and focus of each session.Jennifer’s practice aims to work collaboratively to find the best approach. She will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt sessions over time. Figuring out the right method is part of the process and happens together, not imposed from the start.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls let people see each other and hold richer conversations, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for regular check-ins, brief reflections or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to schedule work around daily life and to keep momentum between meetings.
