Jennifer Risebury , BACP

Jennifer Risebury is a BACP-registered therapist working from the United Kingdom. BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body that signals adherence to recognised practice standards. With three years of clinical experience, she draws on person-centered and integrative influences to tailor therapy to each individual.

Her work focuses on a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and family difficulties, and intimacy-related issues. Jennifer also supports people facing challenges such as neurodiversity, parenting struggles, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. She uses a collaborative style that encourages reflection, emotional processing, and the development of practical skills to manage difficult feelings and build self-confidence.

Jennifer incorporates a variety of therapeutic tools to help clients understand patterns, regulate emotions, and develop resilience. She is responsive to messages and journal entries and checks in at various times throughout the day - messages received after 8:30 pm may be answered the following morning, and responses on Sundays or some bank holidays may wait until the next working day. Her practice offers flexibility in session formats, including live chat, telephone calls, and video calls, and she seeks to accommodate scheduling preferences where possible.

Approaches That Guide Online Therapy

Jennifer uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns - this approach helps people understand connection and trust issues and can be useful for relationship difficulties and attachment concerns. She also practices Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritises the client's own experience and encourages self-directed growth through empathy, acceptance, and reflective dialogue - this is often helpful for building self-esteem and processing emotions. In addition, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is used to identify and reorganise emotional responses in relationships - it supports those navigating intimacy, communication problems, and relational distress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer works with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time to ensure the work feels relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to connect from different locations. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling and allow clients to engage in ways that feel most comfortable, while still working with licensed professionals to address their concerns.
