About Janet

Janet Hill is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems and depression. She also supports those coping with trauma, addiction, body image concerns and eating or food-related issues. Her style is grounded and respectful, aimed at making each person feel heard and understood. Janet uses a tailored approach in sessions. She listens first, then works with clients to agree clear goals. Conversations focus on practical steps people can take between meetings. The emphasis is on small, manageable changes rather than big leaps. With three years of experience, Janet brings a straightforward, compassionate manner to the room. She encourages clients to name what matters most and to test out new ways of responding to difficult emotions. She aims to reduce overwhelm and help people feel more in control of day-to-day life. Janet is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That credential is presented as part of her professional details. She practises in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs, with planning and follow-up tailored to individual circumstances. Janet works collaboratively, helping clients build skills for stress, sleep problems, grief, parenting strain, anger and intimacy concerns. Your first conversations will focus on understanding the immediate problem and deciding practical next steps.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being listened to and understood. The therapist offers a supportive, non-judgemental space and follows the client’s lead to set goals. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, eating and body image issues by letting people speak openly and find their own solutions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janet will talk with each person about what feels most useful and adjust methods over time. Together they decide which ways of working suit the client’s needs, goals and preferences. Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy routines and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to schedule short check-ins during a lunch break or to keep regular appointments when life is hectic. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as those details are set when arranging meetings. Many people find online sessions help them maintain momentum and practise coping strategies between meetings.
