About Justine

Justine Blakeman is a counsellor who uses trauma-focused and client-centred approaches to help people navigate difficult life events. She is a BACP member with six years of experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, relationship issues and trauma and abuse. Justine aims to create a calm, practical space where people can talk through what feels overwhelming.

Her work often focuses on day-to-day problems such as parenting pressures, sleep and eating concerns, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

She also supports people facing anger, addictions, low self-esteem and work-related strain. Relationship concerns covered include communication problems, commitment worries and separation or divorce matters. Justine draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy ideas to help people spot patterns and try new ways of responding.

Mindfulness techniques are used to help calm the body and manage strong emotions. Her trauma-focused work pays attention to safety and pacing, helping people make sense of distressing events at a rate that suits them. In sessions she treats the person as the expert in their life and works collaboratively to set clear, achievable goals.

Practical tools, simple exercises and reflective conversations are common parts of the process. The aim is to leave people with ways to manage day-to-day challenges more easily. Justine practises in the United Kingdom and works in English.

She encourages anyone considering therapy to take the first small step and complete a short questionnaire to begin matching with her.

How these approaches work online

Justine uses trauma-focused therapy to help people make sense of distressing events and reduce their ongoing impact. This approach moves at the client’s pace and focuses on safety, grounding and understanding reactions to trauma. Client-Centred Therapy is about listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions by recognising their strengths. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replaces them with practical steps that reduce anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to pick methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. Sessions may draw on one approach more than another and adjustments are made as progress and comfort change over time.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. People can choose video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, or text-based messaging for ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting or travel and to use formats that feel most comfortable for the individual.
