Jenny Doig is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with 22 years of professional experience. She offers a calm, respectful approach and aims to tailor sessions to each person's needs. Jenny uses plain language and practical steps so people can feel heard and understood from the first contact.

She commonly helps people manage stress and anxiety and talks through anger and grief. She also supports those facing difficulties with addiction, sleep, eating, and self-esteem.

Background and approach

Relationship concerns, intimacy issues and the impact of trauma and abuse are part of her everyday practice. Jenny draws on approaches that focus on attachment, how people relate to others, and on clearer thinking patterns. She combines client-centred listening with cognitive tools to spot unhelpful thoughts.

Mindfulness and existential ideas also guide conversations about meaning and day-to-day coping. Sessions are built around practical goals. Jenny helps people set small steps they can try between meetings.

She adapts pace and methods to fit what each person finds useful, whether that is talking things through, learning new coping strategies, or practising present-moment awareness. Her background includes work across many common and complex concerns such as parenting strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, and complex family dynamics.

Jenny aims to make the process straightforward so people can focus on getting the support they need.

How Jenny’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behaviour. Online sessions use this to map patterns in close relationships and to practise new ways of connecting and setting boundaries. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect mood and action. In remote sessions this often means learning to spot unhelpful thinking, testing different actions and checking what works between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy encourages attention to the present moment and reduces reactivity. Exercises can be guided during video calls or practised via short text prompts between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods as sessions progress. That way the plan grows from collaboration rather than being imposed.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let you work face to face when a fuller conversation is needed. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for quieter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins, homework prompts or days when typing feels easier than speaking. Together these options help people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
