About Janette
Janette Potts is a counsellor with four years' experience who listens and stays present with each person she meets. She uses an integrative way of working so sessions are guided by the client. Janette says people are at the heart of every session and she helps them make sense of where a problem may have come from.
She has worked with people of all ages and has a particular interest in supporting those with health problems. Janette completed a Level 7 Diploma in counselling supervision, and she holds BACP which is shown as her professional credential.
In practice she aims to help people lighten their burden by identifying practical steps and clearer thinking. Her work often addresses stress, anxiety, sleeping difficulties, depression and coping with life changes. She also supports people facing grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues and those managing addiction or anger concerns.
Janette uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. Techniques draw on attachment perspectives, client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness practices. Sessions usually focus on what is useful now and on small changes that make daily life easier.
She encourages people to be part of planning their work together. If someone wants to look at career concerns, parenting pressures, ADHD or chronic illness, Janette aims to tailor sessions to those goals and practical needs.
How Janette blends approaches for online work
Janette uses client-centred listening to build a strong therapeutic relationship. This approach means the counsellor follows the person's lead, reflects what they say and helps them find their own solutions. It is helpful for people who want a calm, accepting space to talk about difficult feelings.She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT techniques can help with worrying, mood changes and sleep problems by identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small changes in behaviour.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janette will discuss options with each person and agree together which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative step helps shape the focus and pace of sessions.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around daily routines and making it easier to keep continuity during busy weeks. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it simpler to keep regular appointments, try shorter check-ins when needed, and fit talking therapy into a family or work schedule.
