About Janice

Janice Stack is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who brings four years of professional experience to her practice. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns and parenting pressures. Janice believes people hold strengths that help them move through hard times, and she supports clients as they take first steps toward change.

Her background includes work with depression, addiction and trauma-related concerns. She also helps people dealing with grief, intimacy worries, sleep and eating difficulties, and life transitions such as career change or separation.

Background and approach

Additional focus areas include attachment issues, communication problems and caregiver stress. Janice uses a mix of practical approaches to suit each person. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to reframe thoughts and build helpful actions.

Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at patterns in close relationships. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Janice aims to create a space where people can talk honestly, practise new skills and test different ways of coping.

She treats the client as the expert in their own life while offering gentle direction when it helps. Her BACP accreditation is listed as a professional credential. Janice works online with a range of formats so people can choose what fits their day.

She welcomes contacts from people living in the UK and internationally who want to explore change.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling

Janice uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as core tools. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, stress and people trying to move forward after setbacks. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and teaches practical skills to change patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janice will discuss different methods with clients and agree a direction together. She treats the process as collaborative and adjusts the plan as goals and needs become clearer.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when schedules permit. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option and useful for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to share thoughts between sessions or to fit counselling into a break at work. These options let people choose what fits their routine and communication comfort while working with registered or accredited professionals.
