Jennifer "Jen" Somerville, BACP

Jennifer "Jen" Somerville has been a qualified counsellor since 2018 and works from an integrative model with a person-centred core. She approaches people with the belief that each individual is the expert on their own life, and she creates a supportive space for exploring challenges while drawing on additional therapeutic methods when they suit the person's needs.

Jen has supported people with a wide range of difficulties, including homelessness, addiction, family and parenting concerns, adoption-related matters, student and study challenges, school attendance issues, bereavement and loss, palliative care and life-shortening conditions, child loss, religious trauma, workplace issues, and identity questions. She works with both adults and young people and holds a further qualification specifically for working with younger clients.

She offers both short-term and longer-term counselling and makes appointments available face-to-face, online, or by telephone. Jen also holds BACP accreditation - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which is the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. She welcomes enquiries and is open to discussing how her integrative, person-centred approach might support individual needs.
