Janet Brown , BACP

Janet Brown is a warm and compassionate counsellor who supports people facing relationship, family and trauma-related difficulties as well as a wide range of everyday mental health challenges. She adopts a collaborative, person-centered approach that treats each individual as the expert in their own life, and she draws on practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients explore patterns and make choices that feel more helpful and satisfying.

Janet works in a non-judgemental, respectful style and emphasises compassionate listening and working at the client’s pace. Her practice includes support for grief, stress, anxiety, sleep problems, self-esteem difficulties, parenting and a variety of life transitions. She also works with people affected by abandonment and attachment issues, domestic violence, addiction, eating and body-image concerns, and the complexities of blended families and separation.

Janet holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and has completed specialist training that includes therapeutic counselling, mindfulness and domestic violence. She is based in the United Kingdom, accepts international clients, and offers sessions using a range of online formats so people can access help in ways that suit their lifestyle and circumstances.

Attachment, client-centered care and online therapeutic support

Janet integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into online work to address relationships, trauma and everyday emotional difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns shape feelings and reactions, helping people understand trust, closeness and abandonment concerns and improve how they relate to others. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and supporting the client’s own goals and choices, which can be especially useful for building self-esteem and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and Janet works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt these approaches to suit different situations and will review progress together with the client.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to access consistent support while balancing work, family and other commitments. These formats provide flexibility in scheduling, allow continuity when circumstances change, and let people choose the way of working that feels most comfortable for them.
