About Jennie
Jennie Holloway is a counsellor registered with the NCPS with six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are struggling with anxiety, stress, low self esteem, grief, trauma and other emotional difficulties. Sessions aim to make talking straightforward and practical so people can work out small changes that feel manageable.
Before working in her current role Jennie provided counselling in a pupil referral unit, supporting parents and children who could not attend mainstream school. That role involved working with a wide range of issues, including bereavement, anger, abuse, refusal to attend school, depression and low mood. She also has experience using Drawing and Talking therapy in earlier work.
Jennie describes her practice as integrative. She uses Client-Centred methods alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and psychodynamic ideas when these suit the person’s goals. That means sessions can be conversational and non-directive, or more structured and task-focused when helpful.
People who come to her often want to understand patterns of thinking or behaviour that are getting in the way. Jennie works on practical steps - noticing unhelpful thoughts, trying new responses and building everyday coping skills. She supports issues such as addiction, sleeping problems, intimacy-related worries and problems linked to life transitions.
Her background includes work with both young people and adults and she adapts session style to the individual. If someone is unsure where to start, she begins by listening and then agrees on clear, manageable steps to try between sessions.
How CBT and person-centred approaches work online
Jennie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify thinking patterns and test different ways of responding. CBT sessions often include short tasks or exercises to try between meetings that target anxiety, sleeping problems, obsessive thoughts and low mood.She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which means sessions can be conversational and paced by the person. This approach supports people who want to talk things through while working out their own solutions. Mindfulness techniques may be introduced to help with stress and grounding when that feels useful.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jennie will discuss goals and preferences and adapt the style to suit those aims. That collaborative decision making helps decide whether to focus on practical CBT tasks, open discussion or mindfulness practice.
