About Me image
Hi
My name is Jennifer Potter, Counsellor and Specialist Public Health Community Nurse and I invite you to the explore the possibility of....

Peace of Mind.

My core values pledged to you are,

  • Harmonious - Let’s unravel the answers together without judgement.
  • Realistic - This is your place to talk, cry, think and explore issues from a different view with an empathetic advocate that will respect you, your life`s journey and your opinion.
  • Invested - A safe, person centred, holistic, protected, calm environment where we persevere to peel away the layers of life one step at a time for as long as you need.

Some people find talking to an independent professional easier then talking to a friend or relative.
My AIM is to help you find "Peace of Mind".

Spanning over 20 years' experience working in the NHS as an adult general nurse supporting the community from birth to the final chapter and everything in between. Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to work in a variety of settings, including community care, hospice care, public health which includes pregnancy and parenting emotional exploration to gain a better understanding of yourself. 

Drawing on my experience supporting individuals and families, I provide therapeutic counselling to individuals and parents whose children need to be included in the sessions

My belief in the power of connection and compassion has enabled me to develop strong personal skills as an advocate, listener, mentor, advisor, empath and counsellor. 
I offer you time with me and aim to help you find
Peace of Mind.


As a counsellor, I believe in creating a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment. Our sessions will be tailored to your unique needs. 

Unconditional Positive Regard: I will offer you unwavering acceptance and respect, regardless of what you share.

Empathy: I will strive to understand your perspective and experience your world as you do.

Congruence: I will be genuine and authentic in my interactions with you, fostering trust and openness.

Active Listening: I will pay close attention to your words and non-verbal cues, reflecting back your thoughts and feelings to help you gain clarity.

Exploration: We will work together to explore your inner world, identify patterns, and develop new insights.

Self-Discovery: You will have the opportunity to discover your own strengths, resources, and potential for growth.

Online or In-Person: Sessions can be conducted online via video conferencing or in person at your home or my office space at Kingsclere Counselling Service.

Duration: Sessions are scheduled for an hour, but we typically spend time together for about 50 minutes. Then we can take 5 mins either end to settle in or wind down.

Frequency: The frequency of sessions can be discussed based on your individual needs and preferences.

Remember, you are the expert on your own life. I am here to provide a supportive and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.
