About Jennifer

Jennifer Risebury is a BACP registered counsellor working in the United Kingdom with three years of practice. She offers person-centred, integrative therapy and sees people for concerns such as stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, depression, anger and relationship issues.

Jennifer keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She helps people reflect on what drives their reactions and notices patterns that fuel frustration or resentment. Conversations focus on understanding feelings, building emotional regulation, and learning small changes that reduce repeated outbursts.

Her style is collaborative. Jennifer uses tools from attachment-based, emotionally focused, mindfulness and solution-focused ways of working to support clearer thinking and steadier responses. She encourages journalling and message check-ins between sessions when helpful.

People who prefer a direct, calm approach tend to find her useful. She talks through practical steps to manage stress at work, troubles with sleep or mood, and difficulties that come from past wounds or current pressures. Sessions also look at self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns and how ADHD or neurodiversity can affect emotional control.

Jennifer offers video calls, telephone calls and live chat as options to make therapy fit everyday life. The first session is used to assess needs and agree a way of working. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial appointment.

Costs vary by location and sessions are provided through a cancellable subscription model. International clients may be accepted and sessions are offered in English.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape emotional responses. Online sessions can use that focus to spot patterns in how you relate and react, and to practise different responses in real time. Client-centred work puts the person at the heart of sessions, encouraging reflection and self-directed insight; this helps when a person wants to talk through what causes their anger and try new ways of responding. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps identify and shift the emotions beneath conflict and frustration, which can change how someone responds in heated moments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with you, consider your goals and preferences, and agree together which methods to try. This makes the process collaborative and focused on practical change rather than labels.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking. The biography lists video calls, telephone calls and live chat as options, and these can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Telephone calls can be a shorter check-in when time is limited, video calls allow fuller conversation with visual cues, and live chat suits written reflection between work tasks. Online sessions help people keep therapy consistent without needing long travel time.
