Janet Bellis , NCPS

Janet Bellis is a pluralistic psychotherapist with five years of experience supporting people through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges. She holds NCPS, which indicates membership of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, and has offered clinical support through one of the United Kingdom’s leading mental health charities. Her work has engaged with issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, bereavement, trauma including abuse, relationship difficulties, life transitions, phobias, panic attacks, and confidence building.

Janet practices in an integrative, client-focused way, tailoring therapeutic work to each person rather than using a single method for everyone. She blends person-centred and solution-focused perspectives with other evidence-informed techniques to help clients explore what is holding them back and to develop practical strategies for lasting change. Her approach emphasizes collaboration, empathy, and respect for the cultural and personal contexts that shape each person’s experience.

Having worked with people from diverse backgrounds and nationalities, Janet aims to help clients build insight, strengthen emotional resilience, and develop new skills and behaviours that support wellbeing. She has provided sessions via video, phone, and chat and has experience arranging flexible appointment times to accommodate different schedules, including evening slots in UK time.

Approaches that guide online therapeutic work

Janet draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centred principles to shape her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and supports valued action when life feels overwhelming - it is often used for anxiety, stress, and navigating major life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns of connection and can be useful for relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, and attachment issues. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the process, offering compassionate listening and a non-judgemental stance that helps build insight, self-esteem, and confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Janet works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time, adjusting techniques in response to what proves most helpful for each individual.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility for people with busy schedules or different time zones. These formats make it easier to access regular support without travel, accommodate varied communication preferences, and allow therapists and licensed professionals to maintain continuity of care when in-person appointments are not possible.
