How Justin works
He uses a mix of talking, practical exercises and simple mindfulness practices. Justin holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, which is noted here as his listed credential. He has 14 years of counselling experience and many more years working across social care settings.
That background includes mental health, learning differences, criminal justice and support for young people. He combines counselling work with teaching and leading mindfulness and Buddhist-inspired meditation sessions. He continues his own practice of personal development and meditation, a practice he has followed since his teenage years.
This shapes a calm, reflective style in sessions. People meet him for help with long-term problems and immediate pressures alike. He aims to make therapy understandable and useful, with clear steps clients can try between meetings and simple ways to track progress.

Online support options
Approaches that fit everyday problems online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding each person from their own point of view. It involves open listening and reflection so people feel heard and can find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to shift thinking and improve mood and anxiety. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and work with strong emotions. It can be useful for relationship strain, intimacy issues and deep feelings like grief or shame.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. They can adapt the plan as therapy progresses so it stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging are helpful for short check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to attend regularly and fit therapy around daily life.
