About Jenny

Jenny Field is an ACA counsellor and a PACFA practitioner with 17 years of professional experience in Australia. She helps people who are dealing with substance and process addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and the wear of compassion fatigue. Jenny creates a calm setting where people can say what they feel and think without judgment.

She often begins by listening to what matters most and what feels hardest right now. Then she works with each person to set small, practical goals they can try between sessions. Jenny draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and choose meaningful action, and on client-centred ways of working that keep the person’s own values in view.

Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationship patterns and family strain. That can be useful for intimacy concerns, abandonment feelings, and parenting challenges. Jenny also supports people facing end-of-life and hospice questions, and those coping with shame, guilt, isolation and complex grief.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused. People are invited to try new ways of responding to stress and to practise small changes that fit daily life. Jenny will tailor the pace to each person’s comfort and needs.

Her background includes long-term work helping people with anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, phobias, self-harm histories and sexual assault recovery. She advises anyone interested to use the Start Therapy button and complete the short questionnaire to begin the matching process.

Approaches that guide online support

Jenny commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify their values and take small steps that matter. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression and difficulty with motivation.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past relationships shape current responses. That focus can help with intimacy issues, abandonment themes and family patterning.

Client-Centred Therapy is part of her way of working too, meaning sessions aim to be respectful and led by the person’s priorities rather than the clinician’s agenda.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Jenny will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s needs, goals and preferences. She will check in and adjust the plan as sessions progress so the work stays relevant and manageable.

The profile does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives - for instance a shorter check-in during a lunch break or meeting without travel. It also allows people to continue momentum between in‑person visits and to practice skills in the settings where they live.
