About Jen
Jen Murray is an AASW social worker with 20 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, career questions, life changes and family concerns. She also supports people dealing with anger, bipolar-related stresses and issues around money and work.
Jen invites people to bring whatever feels hard right now. You do not need the right words or a clear plan. Sessions start from what is on your mind and build practical steps and clearer thinking together.
Her style is grounded and straightforward. She uses client-centred listening to follow what matters to each person. She draws on existential thinking when people are wrestling with meaning, values or spiritual questions. Solution-focused tools help when someone needs quick, practical changes and ways to cope between sessions.
Jen describes her work as informed by trauma-aware practice and a strengths focus. That means she pays attention to how past experiences shape current reactions and looks for existing resources people can use. Conversations often move between understanding what has happened and trying small experiments to shift day-to-day life.
Outside the room she enjoys nature, learning and simple adventure. Those interests feed into a pragmatic, open-minded approach in sessions. If you are juggling family pressures, work strain or a big life transition, she helps clarify options and practical next steps.
How sessions work
How Jen’s approaches translate to online sessions
Jen uses client-centred therapy to place the person’s immediate concerns at the centre of each session. That means the conversation starts with what feels most pressing and the pace follows the person’s needs. Existential therapy is used when people are wrestling with life purpose, values or deeper questions; those conversations focus on meaning and choices rather than labels.She also draws on solution-focused therapy to set short-term goals and small experiments that can be tried between meetings. Those tools help people who want practical changes for stress, relationship tensions, or work and money issues. Choosing an approach is collaborative: the therapist and client will work together to decide which ideas to use based on needs, goals and what feels helpful in early sessions.
Specific session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, making it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, or allowing sessions at times that suit work and family routines. Therapists who offer remote sessions commonly adjust pacing, use practical homework and focus on doable steps so sessions support everyday life without asking for big schedule changes.
