About Jenny

Jenny Field is an ACA and PACFA credentialed counsellor with 17 years of experience in Australia. She helps people who are struggling with addictions, grief, trauma and the everyday pressures that wear people down. Jenny offers steady support for those facing relationship strain, anxiety, depression and the fallout of separation and divorce.

She creates a calm space where people can speak honestly about painful thoughts and feelings. Jenny aims to keep language plain and practical so clients know what to expect each session. She focuses on building trust and on small steps that make day-to-day life more manageable.

Jenny blends approaches that centre the person and their values. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help clients notice what matters and take practical steps. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships affect current patterns and closeness.

Sessions often include talking through difficult memories, identifying unhelpful habits and trying new ways of relating to thoughts and emotions. Jenny also supports people coping with compassion fatigue and end-of-life concerns, offering steady presence during hard decisions.

Her style is straightforward and warm, with an emphasis on practical tools and realistic goals. People who want a calm, judgments-free place to work through grief, addiction, separation or persistent anxiety may find her approach useful.

Approach and what online counselling can offer

Jenny draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take practical action aligned with those values. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression and urges tied to addiction because it focuses on flexible action rather than fighting thoughts.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early connection patterns influence current relationships and closeness. This can help when intimacy, abandonment or relationship trust are central concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenny will collaborate with each person to choose what fits best based on their goals, history and what feels comfortable. That decision is reviewed as progress is made and needs change.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats available before booking. Practical benefits often include fitting appointments around work or family life, saving travel time and being able to check in from a familiar location. Some formats also let people use audio-only check-ins when a shorter conversation is needed or when video is not preferable.
