My Name is Jenn and I welcome you warmly to Prospect Therapies. I am trained in multiple modalities which enables me to blend different approaches to work with you in the best way possible.

Alongside my private practice I support Number 22 counselling services through their “Hope” project. I also volunteer with them to offer counselling to adults, giving them access to mental health services.

Working collaboratively in a safe and calm space with clients is inspiring and keeps me learning and developing.

Person Centred Counselling

I am trained in person centred counselling, which is a humanistic approach offering you the autonomy to bring issues to sessions. I will be led by you and will not distract you. This approach gives you the opportunity to explore your own feelings, beliefs, behaviours and issues, giving space and time to make your own decisions, becoming self-aware and growing independently. I will be empathetic and understanding to see the situation from your viewpoint. I will remain open, honest and transparent, consistently accepting and valuing with an unconditional positive regard.

As a cognitive behavioural therapist, I can bring a structured approach when clients are struggling with dysfunctional emotions and behaviours by modifying negative or irrational beliefs. This approach works by identifying and replacing these thoughts, with the aim to change the behaviours associated with these thoughts.

The psychodynamic approach focuses on the unconscious process as they manifest in the current behaviour of a person. This approach looks to heighten self-awareness and understanding of the past and how this influences current behaviour.
