Background and approach
She also helps people with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem, bipolar issues, and compassion fatigue. Sessions focus on listening first and following the person’s lead. The counsellor uses empathy and reflective listening to help people understand their feelings and options.
Practical steps and small experiments between sessions are often used to try new ways of coping. Penny aims to create a calm space where people can speak openly at their own pace. She values collaboration and helps set goals that fit each person's life.
The work is down-to-earth and paced to what the person needs. People who contact her are usually looking for a supportive, non-judgemental professional to help them manage tough emotions and make changes. Penny will work alongside someone to clarify priorities and build on their existing strengths.

Client-Centred care online and how it helps
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and the person’s own goals. The counsellor reflects back what is said and helps people find clarity about their feelings and choices. This approach is useful for issues like anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and grief because it builds on the person's own experience.The therapist believes the best approach is chosen together. During early sessions she will listen to what matters most and discuss how Client-Centred work could help. If another way of working seems a better fit, she will talk this through and adapt the plan collaboratively to match the person's needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video is helpful when visual contact matters, phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits shorter check-ins or running notes between sessions. These options offer flexibility so people can pick what feels most manageable for them.
