About Janet
Janet Bellis is a pluralistic counsellor who combines several therapeutic approaches to suit each person she sees. She holds a First-Class Honours degree in Counselling and the NCPS credential, and she draws on five years of practice to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem.
Janet works in a collaborative way. Sessions focus on what is getting in the way and on small, practical changes. She uses talk-based methods alongside techniques from cognitive and emotion-focused approaches to help people build new habits and clearer thinking.
Her background includes time supporting clients at a major UK mental health charity. That work exposed her to a wide range of difficulties such as bereavement, trauma, panic, phobias and relationship problems. She also has experience supporting people with parenting strain, sleep and eating concerns, addiction and ADHD-related challenges.
Janet describes her style as warm, empathic and non-judgemental. In sessions she helps people develop coping skills, strengthen emotional resilience and practise new behaviours. The aim is to leave with tools that make everyday life more manageable.
She sees people from varied cultural and national backgrounds and accepts international clients. Sessions can be scheduled in the evenings (UK time) to suit different time zones. To begin, prospective clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

How Janet’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions. It supports values-based steps so clients can move toward a life that matters to them, even when worries remain present. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and trying small behaviour changes to improve mood and sleep. It is practical and often helpful for anxiety, low mood and panic. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people practise new ways of relating to themselves and others.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will listen to concerns, goals and everyday routines, then suggest methods to try. If something does not feel helpful, she can adjust the plan so it better fits the person's needs and preferences.
Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, for example by using an evening appointment after work or a short phone check-in when time is tight. The biography indicates sessions can be delivered by video, phone or chat, but readers should confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it possible to practice strategies where life actually happens and to keep continuity when schedules or locations change.
