About Jenny

Jenny Cleary NCPS offers a calm, person-centred approach that blends creativity with practical work. She meets people where they are and moves at a pace that feels manageable. Jenny draws on nine years of experience to help people untangle difficult feelings and find clearer direction.

She begins by helping people reconnect with their values and what brings them joy. Sessions aim to identify unhelpful beliefs and patterns that keep someone feeling stuck or trapped. Her style is gentle but direct - supportive while encouraging honest reflection and change.

Jenny uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. This can include techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy alongside attachment-informed ways of looking at relationships. The work often combines talking with practical exercises to try between sessions.

Her background in nature and art shapes how she works. People can expect creative, accessible ways of reflecting on difficult experiences such as grief, trauma, relationship strain, stress and burnout. She also helps with issues like sleep, eating concerns, addiction, ADHD and career-related stress.

Jenny is based in the United Kingdom and works with people navigating life changes, compassion fatigue and the aftermath of major events, including coping with natural or human-caused disaster. She aims to provide steady support while people build skills to live more in line with their values.

Approaches that guide online therapy

Jenny commonly draws on acceptance and commitment therapy and attachment-based ideas alongside client-centred principles. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them, and then take steps that match their values. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and can help with intimacy, trust and communication. Client-centred therapy focuses on what matters to the person in front of the counsellor, offering empathetic listening and space to uncover priorities and strengths.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. This means trying a way of working, reviewing how it feels, and adjusting over time so sessions remain useful and relevant.

If you are considering online meetings, check the current session options before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also offers flexibility for people living far from services or juggling work and caregiving, while still focusing on practical skills, values-based change and building healthier ways of relating.
