Janine Kennedy

Janine Kennedy is a counsellor and psychotherapist with ten years' experience. She offers tailored, person-focused support that responds to what each person brings. Her work emphasises clear, practical steps alongside gentle exploration of feelings and patterns.

Janine combines client-centred listening with techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural therapy. She uses mindfulness and motivational questioning to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Sessions aim to build simple tools for coping, not to overwhelm with theory.

People come to her with many concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief and anger. She also supports those facing relationship strain, family and parenting pressures, eating and body-image issues, and challenges around work or life transitions. Janine pays attention to issues like attachment, abandonment, and family-of-origin patterns when these are relevant.

Her practice includes work with trauma and abuse, chronic illness and pain, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related difficulties. She also helps people with communication and control issues, commitment worries, and separation or divorce matters. The focus is on practical change alongside increased self-understanding.

Janine is registered with NCPS and works from the United Kingdom. She offers sessions in English and accepts clients internationally. People are encouraged to check session arrangements and scheduling details before they book.

How Janine’s approaches work in online therapy

Janine uses client-centred therapy which focuses on listening, understanding and reflecting what matters to the person. This approach helps people feel heard and encourages them to find their own solutions to difficult situations.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, a hands-on method that looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and practise new, more helpful responses to stress, anxiety, anger and low mood.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Janine will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time as progress and needs become clearer.

The biography indicates online therapy is offered but does not list specific session formats. Please confirm exact session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need a session that fits into a lunch break. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use online work to make therapy more accessible while keeping the focus on practical change.
