About Jeanette
Jeanette Ellis welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or life changes. She works with individuals on issues such as self-esteem, motivation, addictions and grief. Jeanette aims to make the first steps less daunting and to support people who want practical help and steady encouragement.
She uses a blend of approaches that centre the person in the room and focus on what helps now. Sessions are shaped around the person's goals and preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all method.
How Jeanette works
Conversations tend to be straightforward, with an emphasis on skills and small changes that build confidence. Jeanette has eleven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Her work includes supporting people after trauma and helping them manage difficult transitions.
She also offers help with sleep and eating concerns, career stresses, parenting strain and long-term conditions such as chronic pain. Her background includes practice with a wide range of presenting issues such as attachment concerns, adoption and foster care matters, autism spectrum presentations, anger and personality-related difficulties. Jeanette is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by phone, video, live chat or text messaging. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to therapist availability.

Online support options
Approaches online and what they offer
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape current relationships and emotional reactions. It can help when worries about trust, closeness or abandonment make daily relationships hard to manage. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the individual's experience and priorities, offering a non-judgemental space where the person leads the conversation and decides what to work on.Jeanette will work together with each person to choose the right approach. She discusses goals, personal preferences and what feels most useful, then adjusts methods as progress is made. That collaborative process helps find a way of working that fits real life and changing needs.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face dialogue, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers a brief check-in and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and travel, while keeping continuity over time.
