Jeanette Ellis

Jeanette Ellis is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She aims to support people through hard life events and periods of change with a respectful and compassionate approach. Jeanette draws on eleven years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Her way of working is conversational and person-centred. She listens first to understand what matters most to each individual, then shapes sessions around those priorities. Conversations are adapted to each person’s pace and needs rather than following a rigid template.

Jeanette blends several therapeutic approaches to match the problem at hand. That can mean using cognitive behavioural insights to notice and change unhelpful thinking, attachment-based ideas to map relational patterns, or solution-focused moves to build on strengths and small wins. Trauma-focused methods are used when past hurt is getting in the way of day-to-day life.

She often works with people facing relationship strain, grief, parenting stress, addiction concerns, ADHD-related challenges, chronic health matters, and career pressures. Jeanette also offers support around identity and LGBT issues. She aims to help people feel more in control and clearer about their next steps.

Sessions are arranged through the platform process. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. Fees vary with location and the subscription used, which can be cancelled at any time.

How Jeanette’s approaches translate to online work

Jeanette uses client-centred listening to build trust, which means sessions begin by focusing on what matters most to the individual and shaping the conversation around that. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to make sense of feelings and priorities.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and problem-solving day-to-day difficulties. Trauma-focused therapy is used when past events continue to cause distress and involves careful pacing and techniques to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories.

Finding the right mix of methods is a joint process. The therapist will discuss different approaches and check in about what feels helpful. Goals, pace and techniques are revised together as therapy progresses so the work stays relevant to the person’s needs.

Confirm session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific online modalities. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel, allowing shorter check-ins and offering flexible scheduling. It can also let someone choose quieter moments for sessions, avoid lengthy commutes and combine therapy with day-to-day responsibilities in a manageable way.
