Jenna has been a valued member of the Nightingale Counselling team for many years and is hugely popular with our clients. She is friendly, warm, kind, and sensitive, genuinely caring about her clients and the outcomes of their work together. At the same time, Jenna knows that real progress sometimes means challenging unhelpful behaviours and thought patterns—helping clients get the most out of their counselling experience.

With a wealth of experience and training across multiple counselling specialisms, Jenna has a unique ability to put clients at ease within minutes. She has a wicked sense of humour and, as they say, brings a bit of the luck of the Irish to every session.

Jenna is a leading authority in couple counselling and psychosexual therapy, working with both individuals and couples. She graduated with a BSc (Hons) in Psychology from Queen’s University, Belfast in 2001 and trained with RELATE in Cheshire and Merseyside, completing her qualification as a RELATE Couple Counsellor in 2009. After moving to Glasgow in 2012, she joined Relationship Scotland, offering private counselling sessions, and in 2015 became part of the Nightingale Marriage Counselling team.

Jenna has continued to expand her expertise through ongoing professional development. In 2016, she completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Sex and Relationship Therapy with Relationship Scotland, qualifying as a psychosexual counsellor. She also holds a diploma in compulsive sexual behaviour, a specialised area sometimes referred to as sex and porn addiction.

In addition to her counselling work, Jenna has contributed to published work in Erotically Queer, a pink therapy guide for practitioners, focusing on attachment-based approaches to sex therapy for lesbian couples.
