Justine Gibbs

Justine Gibbs is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people find better ways to cope with stress, anger and relationship strain. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, parenting challenges and career changes. Her approach aims to help clients feel more confident and able to manage day-to-day pressures.

Justine brings six years of professional experience and holds BACP registration, which she maintains alongside ongoing professional learning. She has worked in medical, teaching, employability and disability settings and draws on those practical experiences when supporting clients.

She uses a mix of approaches rather than one fixed method. That means sessions can include skills to manage difficult thoughts, ways to improve communication, and practical tools to reduce stress and overwhelm. She emphasises simple, usable strategies you can try between sessions.

Justine describes her style as engaging and relaxed while staying professional. She tailors each plan to the individual and adjusts it as needs change, using exercises and discussion both in and outside session time. Her work is informed by personal experience as well as professional practice.

When people are ready to change, she aims to guide them through that process step by step. The focus is on helping clients regain a sense of control, try new behaviours, and build confidence in everyday life.

Approaches that shape online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and stressful life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections influence current relationships and helps people change patterns in how they relate to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. This collaborative process means plans can change as progress is made and new needs emerge.

Confirm the exact session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time or allowing a shorter check-in at a convenient moment. It also means practical tools, exercises and homework can be shared between meetings so learning continues during the week. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use online sessions to keep therapy regular around work, family and other commitments.
