About Janet
Janet Bellis is a pluralistic psychotherapist who offers calm, practical support for people facing difficult life moments. She uses a blend of talking therapies to help people understand what's happening and find clearer ways forward. Janet holds NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society) registration and has five years' experience working in the UK mental health sector.
She often works with stress, anxiety and depression, and with issues such as grief, self‑esteem, addictions and trauma and abuse.
Background and approach
Relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, anger and career changes are also within her focus. Janet helps people who are coping with life transitions, compassion fatigue and ADHD related challenges. Her practise draws on several evidence-based approaches including Trauma-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, client-centred work and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
She adapts these methods to each person rather than using a single fixed model. Sessions aim to be collaborative, clear and respectful of the client's own priorities. Janet has experience with people from varied cultural and national backgrounds and is comfortable working with international clients.
She provides sessions in English and offers flexible scheduling, including some evening slots aligned to UK time. Therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. New clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions through the service's booking process.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Trauma‑Focused Therapy helps people process distressing events by gently addressing painful memories and reactions. It can reduce the hold of traumatic memories and support calmer day‑to‑day functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match personal values; it is useful for anxiety, depression and life changes. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps people build healthier ways of relating and feeling supported.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janet will discuss these options with each person and pick or blend methods based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative, with regular check‑ins to make sure the approach is helpful and adjusted when needed.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video suits deeper face‑to‑face conversations, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat is useful for short check‑ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and different time zones while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
