Janet Bellis , NCPS

Janet Bellis is a pluralistic psychotherapist who brings a flexible, client-focused approach to emotional and psychological wellbeing. She holds NCPS accreditation - membership of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society - and has five years of clinical experience supporting people through a wide range of issues including stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, addictions, parenting challenges, sleep and eating concerns, anger, career and life transitions.

Janet adopts an integrative practice, working collaboratively with each person to tailor therapy to their individual needs. Her work draws on person-centred principles alongside solution-focused and hypnotherapeutic techniques, helping people explore what may be holding them back while building practical skills for lasting change. She is comfortable addressing complex presentations and co-morbid difficulties, and brings particular focus to attachment-related concerns, adoption and foster care issues, caregiving stress, and challenges tied to neurodiversity.

Experienced with clients from varied cultural and national backgrounds, Janet is attentive to the personal context that shapes each person’s experience. Therapy with her aims to increase insight, strengthen resilience, and develop new behaviours and coping strategies that support everyday functioning and wellbeing. She offers a warm, empathetic, and non-judgemental space where people can feel heard and supported.

Sessions are offered remotely by video call, phone, or chat, with flexible scheduling that can include evening appointments (UK time) to accommodate international clients.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Janet integrates several evidence-informed approaches to tailor work to each person’s needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without trying to eliminate them, while clarifying values and taking committed action - it can help with anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relational patterns formed early in life and how they show up in current relationships - it is useful for attachment issues, relationship challenges, and difficulties with trust and intimacy. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the process, offering empathic listening and unconditional positive regard to promote self-understanding and growth - it can support confidence building, self-esteem, and emotional exploration.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Janet works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods fit best with their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she adapts techniques as trust and insight grow. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy stays relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy around work, family, or travel. For many people, remote sessions increase accessibility and continuity of care, while allowing licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent support across different locations.
