Jennifer "Jenny" Humphrey, BACP

Jennifer "Jenny" Humphrey is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, eating and food-related issues, anger, low self-esteem and depression. Jenny aims to make the first step feel manageable and recognises that reaching out can be hard. Jenny creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult thoughts and feelings. She works with individuals to understand what matters most to them and to set practical goals for day-to-day life. Conversations are straightforward and focused on small, realistic changes that add up over time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a key part of her approach. Jenny uses it to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try different ways of responding to stress, anxiety and panic. For eating and body image concerns she combines practical strategies with gentle exploration of feelings and habits. She also supports people coping with relationship strain such as communication problems, divorce and separation, and wider family difficulties by helping them build clearer boundaries and better ways of speaking about needs. Pregnancy and postpartum concerns, including postnatal depression, are included in her practice alongside women's health matters. Jenny offers a collaborative working style. She listens, checks in about what is helpful, and adapts sessions to each person’s pace. If you are unsure where to begin, she guides you through the first steps and helps you decide on a clear plan.

How CBT and practical therapy work online

CBT helps people spot patterns in their thoughts and behaviours and try small experiments to change them. It is often used for anxiety, panic, low mood and stress, and can include short exercises, breathing work and simple behavioural tasks to build confidence and reduce overwhelm. Jenny pairs CBT techniques with clear, action-focused conversations. She helps people break problems into manageable steps and then reviews what worked. This approach can be useful for eating and body image concerns as well as for improving everyday communication and handling anger. Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will ask about goals, past attempts and preferences, then suggest ways of working that suit the person. If something does not feel helpful, adjustments are made so sessions remain practical and relevant. Please confirm current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy lives, avoid travel, and use short check-ins around work or caring responsibilities. It can also help when quieter surroundings or less screen time are needed, depending on the format you choose.
