Jennifer Borrell , BACP

Jennifer Borrell is a UK-based counsellor with four years of professional experience and registration with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She specialises in youth counselling while remaining open to working with people of any age, bringing a calm and supportive presence to sessions.

Her practice is grounded in a person-centered approach, and she also integrates elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy where helpful. Jennifer has worked with individuals facing stress and anxiety, family conflicts, parenting challenges, and anger management, focusing on practical steps and emotional understanding tailored to each person. She frames clients as the experts in their own lives, helping them identify strengths and resources to address difficulties and move toward clearer goals.

Jennifer recognises that beginning therapy takes courage and offers a warm, encouraging environment for people taking that first step. Her style is collaborative and respectful, aimed at helping clients feel heard and supported while they work through the challenges that brought them to therapy.

Person-centered and CBT-informed online therapy

Jennifer works primarily with a client-centered approach, which means she prioritises empathy, active listening, and supporting each person to explore their own goals at their own pace. This approach is well suited to issues like family conflict, parenting stress, low self-esteem, and navigating life changes where a trusting therapeutic relationship helps people feel understood and empowered.

She also draws on elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help clients identify and reshaped unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours. CBT-informed techniques can be useful for managing anxiety, stress, anger, and mood-related concerns by offering practical tools and strategies that complement the person-centered work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jennifer will work collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules, easier access from different locations, and multiple ways for clients to engage with licensed professionals and therapists in a format that feels most comfortable for them.
