Janet Hill, BACP

Janet Hill is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression. She writes her approach in simple terms and aims to create a respectful, sensitive space for people to talk through what feels hard right now. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and encourages anyone feeling stuck to take a small first step towards change.

Janet uses a client-centred approach, so conversations focus on the person in front of her and what they want to achieve. Sessions are shaped around each person's needs rather than a rigid plan. That means practical problem-solving mixed with space to reflect on feelings and patterns that get in the way.

Her experience includes supporting people coping with life changes, grief, parenting strain, sleep problems and addictions, as well as issues linked to intimacy, anger and self-esteem. Other areas she notes are abandonment and attachment concerns, body image, codependency and communication problems. Janet aims to help people untangle persistent patterns and make decisions that feel more manageable.

Janet holds BACP, which is noted with the credential acronym BACP. She has three years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. She welcomes people who reside outside the UK and will work with international clients.

To begin, Janet asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire so she can understand presenting concerns and preferences. From there she and the client agree a way forward and schedule sessions that fit the client’s life.

How client-centred work can fit into online therapy

Client-centred therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of each session. It emphasises empathic listening, reflecting what the client brings, and helping them find their own solutions. This approach can help with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief and feelings of emptiness by making space to understand what matters most to the client.

Because client-centred work is collaborative, the therapist and client decide together what to focus on and how to proceed. Janet will invite the client to say what they need, try different ways of talking about problems, and adjust the pace when a topic feels difficult. The aim is to build clarity and small steps that feel doable rather than offering one fixed path.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to schedule appointments during a lunch break or between other commitments, and it can be simpler to sustain regular sessions over time.
