About Janine

I am an Integrative Psychotherapist, meaning I adapt my practice to reflect your needs. We all need time to reflect on and heal from life's experiences and, in doing so, create space to reach our full potential. As your therapist, you will find me warm, encouraging, and engaging.


Experience:

I've worked through the NHS & independently with: childhood trauma, self esteem, identity, cultural & LGBTQ+ issues. I also work with general depression & anxiety. I am highly experienced in working with PTSD from sexual & psychological abuse.



My approach:

I work with all issues through the lens of relationships (including the relationship with self) for it is through them that we form our identity and sense of self. I also see that our formative experiences and relationships inform who we are. When these experiences and relationships feel unhealthy or unhelpful, they can cause conflict between the way we feel about and see ourselves and the way we want to feel and be seen. Through our work, we will explore and make sense of these experiences to identify negative thought patterns, narratives, and internalised beliefs about self. We will then understand where you want to see change and together make that change a reality.


Your first session:

  • We will explore what has brought you to therapy, your expectations and what you need from me as your therapist.
  • We will agree on an initial goal to be revisited throughout our work.

  • "I feel so unbelievably lucky to have met Janine and to have been able to work with her. She has been a shining light in what has been a very turbulent time of my life. Throughout our time together she has managed to guide me to a better understanding of myself, my thought patterns and my behaviour patterns, and I am feeling immeasurably better for it. Janine is kind, empathetic and an overall joy to speak to every week - our weekly sessions were a calming safe space that allowed me to explore every facet of my emotions without judgment. I have a new understanding of how to deal with tricky situations in my life and how to gain confidence in my decisions. I look toward the future with optimism, and I have Janine to thank for this! "
