Welcome
Thank you for stopping by, I’m Janine, mother to three children and an accredited psychotherapist and coach with 17 years experience and countless hours of experience. I offer one to one and group psychotherapy and coaching supporting to a diverse range of clients from all walks of life.
My own life circumstances led me to seek therapy in my early 30’s, an experience that was profoundly transformative and inspired me to train as a psychotherapist in 2005. My personal insight continues to shape my relational approach to my work
I believe emotional regulation and therapeutic enquiry are essential life skills and fundamental to wellbeing, relationships and a fulfilling life.
As an eternal learner, I am committed to ongoing personal development and staying up to date with current research and developments in psychotherapy, neuroscience, coaching and wellbeing.
Clients often describe me as friendly, conversational and straightforward.
I attend regular supervision, am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) in both the therapy and coaching divisions and I work in accordance with their code of ethics and practice.
MY THERAPEUTIC APPROACH
The benefit of being both a psychotherapist and coach is that I can offer a dynamic and flexible approach and can tailor sessions in a way that will work best for you and your needs
My theoretical approach and initial training is Integrative and person centred, which means it is based on both traditional and modern psychotherapeutic modalities including psychodynamic, humanistic, existential and somatic psychology.
I later undertook further trainings in CBT, Human Givens, Therapeutic Coaching, Mindfulness, Working with Trauma & PTSD and evidence informed approaches to working with Neurodivergence.
My extensive and ongoing study and research allows me to draw from an ever expanding set of tools that will be personalised to make your therapeutic journey as rich and effective as possible for you.
