Jennifer Hughes, NCPS

Jennifer Hughes (she/her) is a queer, neurodivergent (ADHD), feminist and trauma-informed therapist based in the United Kingdom. With three years of clinical experience and the NCPS credential, a recognised professional credential, she creates a warm, down-to-earth space for adults to explore what is happening in their lives and begin to make changes.

She works with adults dealing with trauma, childhood and family issues, domestic abuse, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and people-pleasing, and she supports those facing stress, addictions and relationship difficulties. Her additional areas of focus include abandonment and attachment issues, BDSM, kink and alternative sex culture, body image concerns, chronic pain, illness and disability, codependency, communication and control issues, dissociation, divorce and separation, domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, feelings of emptiness, family problems and fatherhood issues.

Her approach is relaxed, compassionate and practical. She meets people where they are without judgement and adapts the work to what is needed in the moment using client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy and trauma-focused methods. Jennifer helps people better understand how their brain works, set healthier boundaries and begin prioritising themselves. She works from the position that each person is the expert in their own life and supports them in finding clarity, strength and confidence to move forward as their full, authentic self. Jennifer provides therapy in English and is currently accepting clients in the United Kingdom.
