About Janine

Janine Ellis offers calm, direct support for adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and life transitions. She is a BACP-registered counsellor who works with individual adults to help them make sense of painful experiences and find practical ways forward. Her style is warm and respectful, aimed at helping people feel heard and understood early in therapy.

Janine draws on an integrative background that puts the relationship first. Sessions focus on building trust and exploring what matters to the client.

Background and approach

She uses person-centred listening alongside techniques from other approaches to help people notice patterns, manage difficult feelings and try new ways of coping. Her training and work experience inform a flexible approach. Janine has three years of counselling practice and also has a history working in the music industry, which gives her insight into artistic and performance-related pressures.

She can adapt conversations to reflect the pressures of creative work or more everyday stressors. Common themes she addresses include anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, self-esteem, body image and the fallout from separation or infidelity.

Sessions aim to make painful topics more manageable, one step at a time. Janine practices in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. She uses a collaborative, pluralistic approach so therapy is tailored to each person’s goals.

People who value a compassionate but practical counsellor may find her style helpful.

Ways of working Janine names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Janine’s approaches work online

Janine uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside a person-centred stance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then identify values and take small steps that match those values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early and current relationship patterns to understand how people connect and react, which is useful for intimacy, trust and family-related worries.

Choosing the right approach is something to do together. Janine treats therapy as a collaborative process and will check in about what feels useful. She adapts methods to match your goals, preferences and the issues you bring, so plans change as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets you maintain a face-to-face rhythm, phone calls work well when bandwidth is lower, and chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins or days when typing feels easier. This range gives practical flexibility for people juggling work, caregiving or travel while keeping therapy consistent and focused.
