About Jen

Jen Murray is an AASW social worker with 20 years of experience. She welcomes people who are stressed, anxious, grieving, facing relationship change, or coping with life transitions like divorce and separation. She invites clients to bring whatever feels heavy - worry, anger, grief or uncertainty - and starts from there.

Sessions are straightforward and down to earth. Jen listens without judgement and helps people find small, practical steps that fit their life. She uses conversations that focus on strengths and on what matters most to the person in front of her.

Her approach draws on client-centred work that keeps the person’s own goals at the centre. She also uses existential ideas to look at meaning and purpose, and solution-focused techniques to build quick, doable changes. This mix helps when someone needs both honest reflection and clear next steps.

Jen describes her style as broad minded and calm. She enjoys nature, learning and connection, and brings that curiosity into sessions. People can expect a steady presence and practical tools rather than jargon.

If someone wants more detail about how sessions run, Jen will talk through what to expect and tailor the approach. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step are used so people can pick a time that suits them.

How Jen’s approaches translate to online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs a space to be heard and to clarify their own goals. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, values and life choices and can be useful for people facing big transitions or questions about purpose. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and quick changes to improve daily life.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Jen will work with each person to decide which ideas fit best for their concerns and preferences. Together they will try methods, check what helps, and adjust the plan as needed to meet personal goals.

Session formats are not listed here, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try different ways of meeting while keeping the therapeutic goals in focus with an appropriately qualified therapist.
