About Jenny
Jenny Doig is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 22 years of professional experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, family tensions, grief, anger and related concerns. Sessions are described as respectful and sensitive, and Jenny shapes conversations to fit what each person brings.
Her day-to-day work covers a wide range of issues. That includes relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, addictions and mood problems such as depression and bipolar. She also supports people facing career shifts, compassion fatigue, ADHD and the ripple effects of trauma and abuse.
Jenny draws on several clinical approaches. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early connections affect current relationships. Client-centred methods help people lead the conversation and set the pace. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot patterns of thinking and try practical changes.
Her style is straightforward and conversational. Sessions usually involve talking through current problems, trying out new ways of responding, and checking what works in daily life. People often come with family-related stress or parenting pressure and leave with clearer next steps to try at home.
She offers sessions in English and works from the professional standards set by the BACP. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial session through the service.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how earlier relationships shape present behaviour and feelings. Online sessions can be used to notice patterns in relationship reactions and to try different ways of relating in real life. Client-centred therapy focuses on what the person wants to talk about and follows their pace; this approach helps people steer sessions towards practical family or parenting issues they need to resolve.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) targets thought and behaviour patterns with clear, hands-on exercises. In online sessions CBT often involves setting small tasks to try between meetings and then reviewing what happened. These approaches suit concerns such as anxiety, stress, anger and relationship strain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and decide together which methods to prioritise. That collaboration continues as progress is reviewed and plans are adjusted.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so people can attend around school or work commitments.
