Andreia Jennings

Existential Integrative Psychotherapist

I have gained an MA in Existential Psychotherapy. As a psychotherapist I draw upon my existential training and on the phenomenological method, which allows my clients and I to gain an understanding of their way of ‘being-in-the-world’.

While growing up we develop various coping mechanisms, which allow us to function and get on with our lives. However, our life circumstances change and we ourselves also keep changing, but sometimes we continue to use the same coping mechanisms, which instead of helping us, hinder our development and self-fulfilment. Our inner discourse may become stuck in rigid views of ourselves, we can repeat unhelpful patterns of behaviour and become unable to escape our daily mental confinements.

Therapy opens our inner conversation to a dialogue with an-other in a safe and non-judgmental environment, so we can gain new perspectives on our private and social lives, and see that are other ways of addressing ourselves and the world. It helps us to become self-aware and more honest with ourselves giving us balance and assurance to step more courageously into the unknown.
