Kristine Jenkins

I am on annual leave from 27 July - 20 August, 2023

I am a psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist. This means that I work with linking past and present, gaining a deeper understanding of your relationship with others and with yourself.

My approach is rooted in the psychoanalytic tradition, inspired by Freudian and Jungian thinking. I have 12 years' experience in working with depression, anxiety, bereavement and relationship issues.

I see clients from all walks of life, regardless of race, faith, gender or sexual orientation. I have extensive experience in working with clients from the LGBTQI+ spectrum. I also have experience working with neurodiverse clients.

Sessions are once or twice weekly, short or long-term (£50 per hour for individual therapy). During an initial session, we will explore your specific needs and proceed on that basis.

I also offer couples counselling, long or short term (£70.00 per hour for couples therapy).Couples therapy can be a powerful way for two people to explore, enrich and heal their relationship. As in individual therapy, we look at the issues that are troubling the relationship here and now, while exploring events in the couple's past, both their individual backgrounds as well as going back to the beginnings of the relationship. Couples therapy is, therefore, a powerful journey of self- discovery for the individual as well as the couple.

Give me a call of send me an email and we can discuss how to proceed. If I am unable to reply straight away, there is a confidential voicemail. Emails are treated with the strictest confidence, in line with current regulation.

I am currently working exclusively online.

During the initial session, we will explore your reasons for seeking counselling at this stage, your current situation and also, briefly, your background (family, friends, education, career - where applicable). This will help me to gain a better understanding of your situation and how to help you in the best way possible. 

There is no obligation to continue with regular sessions at this stage. If you decide not to continue with me, I will be happy to signpost to other organisations or colleagues.

I am on annual leave from 27 July - 20 August.

Alongside my private practice as a psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist, I offer supervision to counsellors and psychotherapists, working with adult individuals and couples.

I trained with WPF as a Psychodynamic Counsellor and Psychotherapist, graduating in 2008. I have had extensive experience with individuals and couples, in counselling centres, a local hospice, in private practice and as an honorary couples psychotherapist at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust.

My approach is Freudian/Jungian/object-relations, exploring the dynamics of live as well as internal relationships. Exploring the counter transference in the therapeutic relationship is an important part of my supervision work, while aiming for a stance that both encourages and challenges the supervisee. I have experience in working with counselling trainees of psychodynamic, integrative and person-centered modalities. I offer a concessionary rate to students of £40.00 per session.

Sessions last 50 minutes, charged at £45.00 per session. Monthly or fortnightly sessions are available. All sessions are conducted online.

Do get in touch for an initial supervision session, with no obligations to continue with regular sessions. I am happy to have an initial no-obligation phone conversation.

I work exclusively online at this time.
