About Jennifer
Jennifer Risebury is a BACP therapist who offers a calm, practical approach to difficult moments. She keeps sessions straightforward and supportive so people can talk about what matters most. Jennifer welcomes clients from across the United Kingdom and internationally, and she works online by video, phone, live chat or messaging.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside attachment-based and client-centred ways of working. In session she helps people untangle strong feelings, build clearer relationships with themselves, and notice patterns that cause pain.
Background and approach
The work is collaborative and paced to the individual’s needs. Jennifer is familiar with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, stress, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and LGBT issues. She also supports people struggling with sleep, eating, parenting strains, burnout and compassion fatigue.
Neurodiversity, ADHD and attachment questions are within her scope of focus. Sessions are practical. Jennifer listens, reflects and offers tools that can be used outside the room.
She draws on mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to help clients manage emotions and make small changes that add up. Her style is warm and non-judgemental, aiming to help people feel understood and more confident. Messages and journals are checked during the day, with replies after 8:30 pm likely the next morning and limited responses on Sundays and some bank holidays.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and work with strong emotions that shape relationships and self-worth. Online sessions can use EFT to identify core feelings and rehearse new responses to old patterns.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how earlier bonds affect current relationships and emotional reactions. This approach helps people notice attachment patterns and try different ways of relating in day-to-day life.
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and supporting the person to find their own solutions. It suits people who want a gentle, paced space to reflect and build self-trust.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then shape sessions so they fit the person’s needs. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial cues and body language during deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited or when the camera feels like a barrier. Live chat or text messaging suit brief check-ins, journalling-style reflections or days when writing is easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
