Jennie Walmsley

Jennie Walmsley works with people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low or stuck in life. She helps clients facing trauma, survivors of sexual assault, and people navigating major life changes. Jennie aims to make therapy straightforward and useful, so conversations focus on the problems that matter to each person.

She is an Integrative counsellor, which means she draws on different approaches rather than following only one method. That flexibility allows her to shape sessions to suit an individual’s needs, whether someone is managing panic, low mood, or workplace pressure. Jennie also brings coaching skills from a long career in broadcasting, which she uses to help people clarify their roles and communicate more effectively.

Jennie is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her working style is practical and conversational, with attention to building confidence and self-understanding. She listens for what feels most helpful and suggests strategies that can be tried between sessions.

Her background includes supporting people through trauma and sexual assault, as well as workplace and family-related stresses. She also works with concerns such as loneliness, shame, attachment difficulties and midlife questions. Conversations can include practical coping ideas, communication practice and reflection on personal values.

Sessions are offered in English from the United Kingdom. Jennie has three years of counselling experience and combines counselling with coaching and training skills to support clearer thinking and day-to-day change.

Approaches and online support that adapt to your needs

Jennie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and mixes them to suit the person in front of her. As an Integrative counsellor she combines talking-based therapy with practical coaching tools, helping people understand patterns in relationships and behaviour and build clearer communication. She also uses trauma-informed approaches to work with people recovering from sexual assault and other traumatic events, focusing on stabilising coping skills and reducing distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jennie will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit what the client needs, adjusting direction as progress and comfort change. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy day and reducing travel time. Some people find shorter check-ins easier to schedule around work, while others appreciate using video when they want face-to-face contact or phone when they prefer not to use a camera. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current online options before booking so you know what formats are available.
