About me

I'm Janet, an integrative therapist of 10 years and clinical supervisor.   

My experience covers working with people experiencing difficult life transitions, parenting challenges, relationship difficulties, navigating an Autism and or neurodiversity diagnosis (personally or with a family member), anxiety, low mood, low self-esteem and burnout. 

I don't believe that one therapeutic approach works for everyone. I draw on a range of approaches, including person-centred, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), adapting the way we work according to your needs and what feels most helpful to you. I offer neuro-affirmative and trauma informed approaches.

For some people, therapy may involve exploring past experiences and understanding how they continue to affect them. For others, it might focus more on what is happening in the present, developing practical ways to cope, or building confidence and self-esteem. We'll regularly check in about how you're finding the work, so that therapy remains collaborative and feels right for you.

Alongside my work as a therapist, I am a Clinical Supervisor, supporting other therapists with their practice. I am an Accredited Member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Both organisations are accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

If you're considering therapy and feel that I might be a good fit for you, please get in touch. We can arrange a time to talk about what you're looking for and whether working together feels right.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

Further information

I offer confidential online therapy sessions for adults aged 18 and over, providing a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly about what you're experiencing.

I work collaboratively and at your pace. I draw on different therapeutic approaches alongside neuro-affirmative and trauma informed therapy. Sessions are adapted to suit your individual needs and goals. 

I understand that starting therapy can feel daunting, so there is no pressure to have everything figured out before we begin. We can take some time to talk about what has brought you to therapy and what you would like support with, and decide together how we might work.
