About Janice
Janice Stack is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and brings four years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety and low self-esteem. Janice approaches each person with respect and a belief that they know their story best.
She aims to make first steps feel manageable for anyone who is feeling stuck or overwhelmed. Janice uses practical talking and reflective work to help people get clearer about their goals.
How Janice works
She draws on therapies like cognitive behavioural techniques and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help with unhelpful thinking and avoidance. Sessions are simple and focused - clients often leave with one or two small actions to try between meetings. Relationships and intimacy concerns are a common focus, alongside grief, trauma, and difficulties with mood or addiction.
Janice also supports people dealing with parenting stress, career change, anger and body image worries. Her wider interests include attachment issues and work with people exploring kink and alternative sexual cultures. She adapts her style to each person, offering a calm, direct manner when needed and a more exploratory, listening approach at other times.
Meetings can be goal-focused or open-ended, depending on what the person wants to work on. Janice accepts clients from the UK and internationally and works in English. To begin, people choose a subscription plan and complete a short matching questionnaire.
Scheduling is then arranged to suit both the client and Janice.

How Janice’s approaches work online
Janice uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as part of her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to identify values they want to live by. ACT can help with anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small behavioural experiments to change how life feels. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating-related struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Janice will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try first. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made or new priorities emerge.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video lets people use visual cues and longer discussions, phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break, live chat supports quick check-ins and text messaging allows short updates between sessions. These options help make therapy flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
