About Jeanette
Jeanette Ellis is a counsellor with eleven years of experience who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She commonly supports people coping with life changes, trauma, grief and challenges such as sleeping or eating difficulties. Jeanette also offers help around parenting concerns and relationship strain.
She works in English and practises from the United Kingdom. Jeanette favours a straightforward, respectful approach. Conversations are shaped around what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
She listens first, then helps set small, practical goals that fit everyday life. Sessions aim to build confidence and clearer coping skills rather than rely on jargon. Her practice draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how past relationships affect current feelings.
She also uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and try new ways of responding. Solution-focused tools help keep therapy grounded in real changes a person wants to make. People come to Jeanette for a wide range of concerns including addiction, anger, career stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
She is also experienced with issues linked to adoption, caregiver strain and chronic illness. Her background includes working through trauma and loss, so she aims to offer steady support in difficult moments. Jeanette is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings an empathetic, practical style to sessions.
She encourages people to take the small steps that build lasting coping skills and a stronger sense of agency.

Approaches that guide online support
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and emotional needs; it can help people understand parenting patterns and why certain situations feel so charged. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Solution-focused methods keep sessions practical by naming clear, short-term goals and tracking small wins that matter in daily life.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Jeanette collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they check what helps and change direction when needed so therapy stays relevant and useful.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels important. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is an issue or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, want frequent brief support, or need to fit sessions around work and childcare.
