About Jenny

Jenny Doig is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 22 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression and anger. She also supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, ADHD and the strains that come with major life changes.

Her style is respectful and down-to-earth. Sessions are shaped around each person's needs and done with sensitivity and compassion. She encourages straightforward conversation and practical steps you can try between meetings.

Jenny uses a mix of approaches to suit different problems. That includes work rooted in understanding attachment, a client-centred way of listening and helping people find their own answers, and cognitive behavioural ideas to spot and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour.

Over two decades she has helped people manage parenting pressures, career stress and difficult transitions such as divorce, bereavement and ageing concerns. She also has experience with trauma, eating and sleeping difficulties, and issues around body image and self‑esteem.

Her therapy aims to help people feel more in control of daily life and more certain about next steps. If you are thinking about starting therapy, she suggests completing the matching questionnaire and booking a first session. The approach will be shaped around your goals and what feels doable for you.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current feelings and behaviour. It helps people who feel stuck in patterns around trust, closeness and loss by looking at relational history and current reactions in simple, practical ways.

Client-Centred Therapy means the counsellor follows your lead and listens deeply. The aim is to make space for your perspective so you can find your own solutions at a steady pace.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It gives clear tools to test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments to relieve anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jenny will work with you to agree what to focus on and which methods to try, adjusting as you go so the work fits your goals and comfort level.

Session formats are not listed here, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around family, work and daily life. It can also allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time and let people join from a quieter space. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to help therapy fit into everyday routines.
