Marlene Jenas, BACP

Marlene Jenas is a BACP-registered counsellor with eleven years of experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by strong emotions and life changes. Marlene focuses on listening and making space for thoughts and everyday habits that affect wellbeing.

Her style is gentle and person-centred. Sessions last 45 minutes and give clients time to speak without judgment or unsolicited advice. Marlene aims to make it easier to name feelings and notice unhelpful patterns in thinking and daily routines.

Many people come for support after loss, grief, or big life transitions. Marlene talks through what feels most pressing and helps people pick small, practical steps to cope day to day. She also offers a steady presence for emotional issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and addiction concerns.

Marlene works in a calm, conversational way. She encourages people to reflect on relationships, self-esteem, parenting stresses and career pressures. The work often includes looking at how habits and routines shape mood and behaviour.

Starting therapy can feel uncertain, and Marlene aims to make the first sessions simple and straightforward. People are guided gently into finding clarity about their priorities and options. If someone wants ongoing support, she will discuss what might help next.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on giving people space to speak and be heard. The counsellor listens without judging and follows what matters most to the person. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, grief and changes that affect daily routines by supporting clearer thinking and emotional expression.

Marlene’s person-centred style is collaborative. She will work with each person to decide which ways of working feel most helpful. Finding the best approach is part of the process and is adjusted over time based on someone’s needs and goals.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and avoid travel time. It also lets people choose shorter check-ins or more flexible scheduling when that helps them manage day-to-day demands. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the pace and focus of sessions to suit an individual’s rhythm and routines.
