About Marlene Jenas

Marlene Jenas practises as a person-centred therapist who helps people reconnect with themselves and gain greater clarity when life feels overwhelming. She recognises how difficult it can be when emotions surface that are hard to name, and she offers steady, empathic support to help clients explore thoughts, feelings, and bodily responses at a manageable pace.

Working in a warm, non-judgemental setting, Marlene gives people the space to speak openly without feeling rushed or judged. She listens attentively and reflects what she hears, aiming to help clients make sense of grief, uncertainty, loss, and other personal struggles that can follow major life changes or past restrictions.

Sessions last 45 minutes and are shaped around what each person needs in the moment, with guidance rather than directive advice. Marlene understands that beginning counselling can bring up uncertainty about what to say or whether there will be enough to discuss, and she focuses on helping clients feel more comfortable and supported as conversations unfold.

She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which represents professional standards for counsellors in the United Kingdom. If someone is ready to begin, Marlene offers to walk alongside them through the early steps of their therapeutic journey.

Client-Centred Care and Online Support

Client-centred therapy focuses on creating a supportive, non-judgemental environment where the client leads the pace and content of sessions. The therapist offers empathic listening and reflection to help people explore feelings, build self-understanding, and work through issues such as grief, anxiety, relationship concerns, and life transitions. This approach is particularly helpful for those who need space to make sense of their emotional experience without pressure to follow a specific agenda.

Marlene approaches the therapeutic process collaboratively, recognising that finding the right method is part of the work itself. She and the client will explore what feels helpful, adjusting the way they meet and talk as needs, goals, and preferences become clearer. Decisions about focus and techniques are made together to support meaningful progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit support around work, family, and daily life. These options allow clients to access a registered professional from their own setting, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for discussing sensitive topics.
