About Me
Hi, I'm Jenny
I am an experienced counsellor supporting parents of tweens and teens with stress, communication challenges and family conflict.
I offer practical, solution-focused therapy in Chichester and online across the UK.
Parenting a tween or teen can feel intense, unpredictable and exhausting. If you’re juggling work, home life and a child who needs more from you than ever, it’s completely understandable to feel overwhelmed.
You’re not alone in this.
And you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
What do I help with?
I support parents and carers of tweens and teens who are struggling with:
- communication breakdowns
- morning or bedtime battles
- emotional outbursts or shutdowns
- anxiety, stress or overwhelm
- conflict at home
- feeling stretched thin or unseen
I help you understand what’s going on, feel more confident, and find practical ways to bring more calm and connection into family life.
How can therapy help parents of tweens and teens?
It helps you understand your child’s behaviour, feel more confident in your parenting decisions, and create more ease at home.
Therapy gives you space to:
- talk openly without judgement
- understand what’s driving your teen’s behaviour
- learn communication approaches that work
- set boundaries that feel healthy
- manage stress and emotional load
- find steady, practical next steps
Why do I work with parents?
Supporting parents has become the heart of my practice because small changes in your well-being can have a big impact on your whole family.
I know first-hand how easy it is to put everyone else first and run yourself down. Over time, I’ve learned how boundaries, realistic expectations and self-compassion make life feel lighter, and I help parents access the same tools.
Counselling offers you the space to take a breath, make sense of what’s going on, and find clarity again.

I work with:
- Parents and carers of tweens and teens
- Individuals navigating stress, relationships and overwhelm
- People managing anxiety, low mood, trauma or overwhelm
- Neurodivergent young people and their parents
- Members of the LGBTQ+ community
- People dealing with family conflict, anxiety, trauma or grief
I create a safe, inclusive space for every client, regardless of background, culture or identity.
What are my qualifications?
