About Marlene
Marlene Jenas is a BACP counsellor who brings 11 years of experience to her work. She introduces a calm, listening presence so people can make sense of difficult feelings. People come to her when life feels heavy or confusing and they need someone who will listen without judgement.
Her practice is grounded in client-centred therapy, which means conversations follow the pace of the person in the room. Sessions last 45 minutes and focus on what matters right now to the individual. Many people talk about grief, loss, changes in life, or ongoing stress and anxiety.
Marlene helps people name feelings and notice patterns that make life harder. She gives space for difficult memories and supports exploration of relationships, parenting concerns, work stress, and self-esteem issues. Her style is straightforward and attentive, avoiding pressure or unsolicited advice.
She also works with concerns such as addiction, trauma and abuse, eating and food-related issues, bipolar and depression, and ADHD. Additional areas she addresses include abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment and family-of-origin issues, infidelity, and communication difficulties.
Marlene practises in the United Kingdom and speaks English. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary with location and therapist availability. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability via the Start Therapy button.
How client-centred work adapts to online therapy
Client-centred therapy focuses on being heard without judgement and feeling free to guide the conversation. In practice this means the counsellor mirrors what the person says, reflects feelings, and follows the issues the person brings. This approach can help with grief, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting stress and identity questions because it creates space for honest talking.The core idea behind person-centred work is collaboration. The therapist and client decide together what to focus on and how to pace sessions. If something isn’t helping, they change it. That shared decision-making helps find an approach that fits someone’s needs, goals and preferences rather than imposing a fixed plan.
Session formats are not specified in the source biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around busy lives, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every session. Many people find it simpler to attend regularly when sessions slot into their day more easily. Registered or accredited professionals adapt the way they work so conversations stay focused and practical, whatever the format chosen.
