About Justine

Justine Blakeman is a counsellor who draws on client-centred work to build a supportive therapeutic relationship. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she brings six years of experience helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure of their next step.

She focuses on common struggles such as stress and anxiety, depression, bipolar mood challenges and trouble sleeping. She also helps with relationship strain, intimacy concerns, grief and managing the impact of trauma and abuse.

Background and approach

Parenting stresses, addictions and compassion fatigue are part of her practice too. Her approach starts from the view that each person knows their story best. Sessions aim to identify strengths and practical steps that feel possible.

She uses a mix of talking, reflection and evidence-informed tools to help people begin to change patterns that cause pain. Decision-making around relationships, separation and family difficulties is often practical and emotional. Justine offers clear conversations about communication, boundaries, attachment and the challenges that follow separation or domestic violence.

She also supports people facing work stress, career choices and issues linked to identity such as LGBT concerns. Work with her may include techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy alongside mindfulness and motivational interviewing. These are blended with a client-centred stance so that therapy fits the person.

Sessions are offered in English to people in the United Kingdom.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Justine uses client-centred work to place the person’s experience at the heart of therapy. That means sessions begin by listening and building a practical, respectful relationship. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and trying small changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Dialectical behaviour therapy adds skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance to help people manage intense feelings and sudden urges.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and situation. That may mean trying different techniques over several sessions and adjusting as needs change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for more in-depth conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, reflective writing or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, parenting or other commitments, while still keeping focus on progress and practical next steps.
