About Jeanette

Jeanette Ellis offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem or life changes. She works with individuals facing depression, trauma, addiction issues, sleep or eating concerns, and career or parenting strain. Jeanette presents herself as a compassionate counsellor who aims to help people find clearer steps forward.

Her practice draws on more than 11 years of experience in the United Kingdom and reflects a client-centred way of working.

Background and approach

That means conversations are guided by each person’s priorities and pace rather than a fixed script. Jeanette uses practical tools to tackle unhelpful thinking and to build coping skills that fit daily life. She uses attachment-focused ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns.

Solution-focused techniques help break big problems into small, manageable goals. Trauma-informed approaches guide work with painful memories when needed, always with attention to safety and pacing. Sessions typically explore what matters most now and what small changes might help.

Jeanette pays attention to parenting pressures, relationship strain, grief and workplace stress, plus issues such as ADHD, bipolar mood concerns and compassion fatigue. She also supports people from LGBT backgrounds and those affected by adoption, bereavement or domestic violence. Her tone is practical and respectful.

New clients are invited to set the pace and to shape the work around their day-to-day reality. Jeanette aims to help people build skills they can use between sessions and to leave therapy feeling more able to manage life’s ups and downs.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Jeanette commonly uses client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques and attachment ideas to guide online therapy. Client-centred work focuses on listening and following the person’s priorities so sessions feel relevant and respectful. Cognitive behavioural work looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety, lift mood, improve sleep and change unhelpful routines. Attachment-informed work considers how early relationships affect current responses and can help with relationship patterns, abandonment worries and trust issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will discuss options with each person and adapt methods to match needs, goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape the pace and focus of work, and allows adjustments as progress is made.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video gives face-to-face interaction for more detailed conversation, while phone calls can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
