About Janette

Janette Potts is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who listens and helps people find clearer ways forward. She places the person at the centre of sessions and lets their needs guide the work. Janette uses an integrative style so conversations can follow what matters most to each person.

She draws on a range of approaches to help with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns and other life changes.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to identify where problems began and to build practical steps that reduce day-to-day strain. Janette also supports people facing health problems and long-term conditions, helping them manage the emotional impact. With four years of clinical experience, she works in ways that suit different personalities and problems.

Methods include talking through thoughts and behaviours, looking at attachment patterns, and using emotion-focused techniques to improve connections and understanding. This flexible mix helps tailor work to individual goals. Janette holds BACP accreditation, which is listed in her credentials.

She has recently completed a Level 7 Diploma in counselling supervision and continues to develop her practice through learning and reflection. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online in several formats. Her aim is to help people lighten their burden and regain more balance.

Practical planning and steady, person-led conversation are central to how she works. The focus is on small, achievable changes that make everyday life easier.

How Janette’s approaches translate to online therapy

Janette draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people who have been affected by distressing events. This approach looks at how traumatic experiences shape feelings and reactions, and then works on small steps to reduce their day-to-day impact. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore how early bonds affect current relationships and emotional responses, which can help with intimacy, trust and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janette will discuss different methods with each person and choose what fits that person’s needs, goals and preferences. That decision is made together and can change as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let people talk face to face, phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving and other commitments.
