Therapeutic methods and online sessions that fit your life
Jennie works in an integrative way, blending evidence-based therapeutic techniques to match each person's needs. One common approach she uses focuses on helping people process traumatic experiences step by step, supporting recovery from things like sexual assault and post-traumatic stress. This involves pacing conversations, grounding strategies and building ways to feel safer in daily life. Another technique emphasises improving communication and role clarity, drawn from her coaching and training experience; this helps people express needs, set boundaries and manage workplace or relationship stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennie will discuss options, listen to what matters to you, and try methods that suit your goals and preferences. She adjusts plans as you go so therapy stays relevant and useful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy practical. Video calls are useful when visual contact helps the conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging can suit short check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options allow people to fit therapy around work, family and daily life, making it easier to keep progress between sessions.
