About Jenny
Jenny Doig is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 22 years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression and addiction concerns. Her work also covers relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, and life changes such as bereavement or career shifts.
Jenny keeps conversations straightforward and humane. She adapts what happens in sessions to the person in front of her rather than following a rigid script. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage emotions, notice patterns that feed anger, and try different responses when stress builds.
Her background includes long-term practice with adults across a range of concerns. She draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how past relationships shape reactions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours.
Mindfulness techniques may be introduced to increase awareness of bodily signs of tension and to create short pausing habits. Client-centred values guide the way she listens and responds, keeping the person's priorities central to each session.
People often come for help with workplace frustration, simmering resentment at home, or repeating patterns that leave them exhausted. Jenny works with each person to set realistic, step-by-step goals and to check progress as the work continues.
How sessions work
How her approaches work for online sessions
Jenny combines attachment-based ideas with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and mindfulness in straightforward ways. Attachment-based work looks at how early and important relationships shape current reactions, useful when anger links to feeling rejected or abandoned. CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioural changes, which can reduce days ruled by simmering frustration. Mindfulness offers simple practices to notice tension and create short pauses before reacting, helpful for managing impulse and lowering arousal.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences and practical constraints and then agree a plan together. That collaborative decision making means the approach can shift as things change or as someone learns what helps them most.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make it simpler to keep momentum between appointments by practising techniques in everyday settings and then talking them through in the next session.
