About Jennifer

Jennifer Gourley offers help for people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem, depression, relationship strain and major life changes. She welcomes straightforward conversations and focuses on making clients feel heard. Her approach aims to help people manage day‑to‑day challenges and find clearer ways forward.

Jennifer uses a client‑centred style that puts the person's experience at the heart of each session. She listens without judgement and follows what matters most to the client.

Background and approach

Sessions are shaped around the issues you bring and the pace you prefer. Over eleven years she has worked with concerns such as abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, and addiction. She has experience with autism and Asperger Syndrome and with people coping with isolation or life purpose questions.

That breadth helps when problems overlap or feel complicated. Her NCPS credential is noted as part of her professional background in the United Kingdom. Jennifer explains things plainly and aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s needs.

She emphasises respect, sensitivity and compassion in every interaction. Starting therapy can feel daunting and she acknowledges that first step is often the hardest. Sessions are presented as a collaborative process where the client leads and the counsellor follows, offering steady support while you work through difficult feelings.

Sessions & fees

Client‑centred support online and how it helps

Client‑centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor reflects what the person says and helps them find their own answers. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self‑esteem, relationship strain and life transitions because it centres the person's experience rather than imposing solutions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jennifer will discuss goals and preferences and together you will decide what feels most helpful. That collaborative discussion can change as needs change, so the plan is reviewed over time to keep it relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text‑based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets you read non‑verbal cues and keep a deeper conversational flow. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat and messaging allow ongoing check‑ins and written reflections for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, caregiving or other commitments while keeping therapy practical and accessible.
