Tina Jennings , NCPS

Tina Jennings is an accredited, registered counsellor with the NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society) and holds a Bachelor of Science in Therapeutic Counselling as well as an advanced diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. With a decade of clinical and life experience, she combines professional training with a practical, hopeful outlook to support people through difficult times.

She works in a person-centred way, integrating cognitive behavioural techniques and brief solution-focused skills to address problems in the here and now. Tina brings strong empathy and an open, nonjudgmental stance to her work, helping people explore new perspectives and practical steps forward. Her background includes service in the Army, which informs her understanding of trauma and post-traumatic stress and how those impacts can appear many years later.

Her clinical experience spans work within the NHS pastoral and spiritual care teams, roles with the charity Mind, and part-time practice for a digital mental health organisation. Across these settings she has supported people experiencing low mood, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and suicidal thoughts, offering compassionate guidance and practical coping strategies.

Tina understands complex issues such as attachment, bereavement, addiction, relationship difficulties and caregiver stress. She describes her approach as hopeful and collaborative, aiming to help people identify solutions, build resilience and move toward a more manageable future.

Online therapeutic approaches that support change and connection

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathic relationship in which the therapist listens deeply and helps the client explore their own values and solutions. This approach is helpful for improving self-esteem, navigating life transitions and finding clarity when feeling stuck.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that identifies unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and teaches alternative strategies. CBT can be effective for anxiety, depression, stress management and sleep difficulties by offering concrete tools to change how someone reacts to challenges.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current emotional patterns and interpersonal styles. It can be useful for people working with relationship difficulties, attachment issues, abandonment or patterns of codependency.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Tina will work collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit best with their needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts the work as understanding grows.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules and for those who need support from home. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and therapists at times that suit clients, while still focusing on meaningful change and practical coping strategies.
