Welcome…

Thanks for stopping by. I’m Janine, Mother to young neurodivergent adults, a Psychotherapist and Coach.

With 17 years and countless hours of experience supporting a diverse range clients from all walks of life, I offer one to one and group psychotherapy and coaching.

My own life experience led me to seek therapy in my early 30’s. It was a profoundly transformative experience which led me to train as an Integrative psychotherapist in 2005. 

If it was up to me, therapeutic enquiry and emotional regulation would be taught to all children and adolescents alongside Maths and English.

An eternal learner, I am committed to ongoing personal development and staying well informed of the latest research in psychotherapy, neuroscience, coaching and wellbeing.

I am warm, friendly, conversational and supportive with a proactive, insightful and straightforward approach. 

I attend regular supervision and am a member of the BACP (psychotherapy and coaching divisions) and abide by their code of ethics and practice.

MY THERAPEUTIC APPROACH

When considering a transformative process such as psychotherapy or coaching, you may be unsure which one is right for you.

The benefit of working as both therapist and coach is that I offer dynamic, flexible and tailor-made programmes that can stand alone or work in tandem.

My theoretical approach is Integrative and based on both traditional and modern psychotherapeutic disciplines that include Person Centred, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis, Existential and Somatic Psychology.

I have further trained in CBT, Human Givens, Therapeutic Coaching, Mindfulness, Working with Trauma & PTSD and cutting edge developments in working with Neurodivergence.

My extensive and ongoing study and research allows me to draw from an ever expanding set of tools that will be personalised to make your therapeutic journey as rich and effective as possible.
