About Jennifer

Jennifer Hughes, known as Jen (she/her), is a queer, neurodivergent (ADHD), feminist, trauma-informed therapist based in the United Kingdom. She offers a warm, down-to-earth space where adults can explore trauma, childhood and family issues, domestic abuse, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties.

Jennifer works with people facing addictions, people-pleasing, and complex emotional responses to past harm. She supports clients in understanding how their brain works, setting healthier boundaries, and learning to put themselves first - often for the first time. Her approach is relaxed and compassionate; she aims to meet each person where they are and tailors the work to what feels most useful in the moment.

Jennifer believes clients are the experts in their own lives and offers practical guidance to help them find clarity, strength, and confidence to move forward as their full, authentic selves. She holds the NCPS credential, which represents a professional counselling qualification, and brings three years of experience to her practice. Jennifer accepts clients in the United Kingdom and provides therapy by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective, offering empathy, acceptance, and space to explore feelings. This approach helps people who are rebuilding self-esteem, learning to set boundaries, or seeking a more authentic life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and developing new coping skills.

Trauma-Focused Therapy directly addresses the effects of traumatic experiences and supports people in processing difficult memories and reactions. It is tailored to reduce the ongoing impact of past harm and to restore a sense of safety and agency.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jennifer collaborates with each client to determine what fits best based on needs, goals, and preferences. She and the client work together to adjust methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and access support from home. These options allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent care in a way that suits each person's schedule and comfort level.
