Jen Murray

Jen Murray is a counsellor and accredited social worker (AASW) with 20 years of experience. She welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, angry, anxious or unsure about their relationships, career or major life changes. Jen invites clients to bring whatever is on their mind, even if they don’t have the right words yet.

Sessions are non-judgemental and person-focused. Jen listens first, then helps people work out practical next steps for grief, bipolar challenges, workplace stress, money worries or family tensions. She also supports people dealing with attachment concerns, abandonment, divorce and communication problems.

Her style is down-to-earth and strengths-based. Jen draws on client-centred conversations to follow each person’s priorities. Elements of existential thinking help when people ask big questions about meaning, purpose and values.

She also uses solution-focused ideas to set small, achievable goals and track progress. This often makes overwhelming problems feel more manageable and gives clear ways to practise new skills between sessions.

Outside the therapy room Jen enjoys nature, learning and connection. That outlook carries into her work - she values curiosity, gentle challenge and pacing that suits each person. If someone wants to explore anger or difficult life changes, Jen aims to create a steady, practical path forward.

How Jen's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and decide what they want to change. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, values and life direction; it can help when people face big questions after loss or major change. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and short-term goals to build momentum and track progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jen collaborates with each person to choose which ideas fit their situation and goals. She will listen to what is important, try different ways of working and adjust the plan as needs evolve.

The practical benefits of online therapy are about fitting care into life. Online work can reduce travel time, make it easier to keep appointments around work or study, and support quick check-ins between in-person sessions. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Appropriately qualified and registered therapists can use these approaches to help people manage anger, stress and life transitions in ways that suit their day-to-day routines.
