About Janine

Janine Kennedy is a counsellor and psychotherapist with NCPS credential and ten years of practice. She offers tailored support that focuses on thoughts and everyday habits, helping people notice what they do and think day to day. Her tone is practical and collaborative, aiming to make small changes that add up over time.

Janine works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, eating and food-related issues, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with relationship and family challenges, parenting strain, career doubts, anger, low self-esteem and the impacts of chronic illness. ADHD, attachment and abandonment issues are among her additional focuses.

Her sessions draw on client-centred ways of working plus cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness practices. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are used when helpful to set practical goals and keep momentum. Janine emphasises clear, achievable steps rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

She often helps people spot unhelpful thinking, try small behaviour changes and build everyday routines that reduce stress. Conversations aim to deepen self-understanding and strengthen coping skills so people can manage tough moments more easily.

Janine works from the United Kingdom and communicates in English. International clients may be seen. Prospective clients are invited to confirm current session options before booking and to use the site's Start Therapy flow to match and schedule sessions.

Practical approaches you can use online

Janine combines client-centred work and cognitive behavioural ideas to help with everyday thoughts and habits. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and creating space for people to make their own choices, which can help when someone is feeling stuck or unsure. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and offers simple strategies to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Janine works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's needs and goals, and she adapts tools as therapy progresses. This means goals, pacing and techniques are shaped together rather than imposed.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. The profile indicates online practice, but please confirm the exact session options before booking. The focus will remain on practical strategies, routine changes and clearer thinking that can be practised between sessions to support everyday life.
