Hello! My name is Janine.
I am a fully qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor. I provide therapy to adults and young people over 18 years old. I have a Masters with distinction in Integrative Counselling and am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy which means I strictly adhere to their ethical code of conduct. As well as my private practice, I work as a relationship counsellor for Relate Bradford & Leeds.
Before re-training, I worked in the music industry for twenty years at various independent record labels in London. Therefore, as well as working with a wide range of people, cultures and experiences, I also provide specialist counselling to musicians and music industry workers, as I understand the unique nature and distinct needs of the music community.
I learn a great deal from all of my clients. I feel humbled and inspired by each of them and the courage it takes to face difficulties to bring about meaningful change in their lives. To turn towards the hurt and the pain that life throws at us can feel like a huge mountain to climb in the beginning. However, sometimes it is not just about the need to feel better, but the need to better feel. Gaining this self-awareness is when healing can begin.
My integrative approach is principally relational and person-centred. This means that building genuine trust and respect in our therapeutic relationship, free from judgement, is my priority. I may also draw from other counselling theories such as CBT, psychodynamic, attachment theory, compassion focussed therapy, transactional analysis and feminist therapy. I adapt my approach to meet each client’s individual needs by working pluralistically. In other words, it is my belief that we are all unique and complex beings so collaboration and client preference is key.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
