About Janet Brown
Janet Brown is a United Kingdom-based therapist who blends cognitive behavioral methods with a client-centered attitude to help people work through challenging life experiences. She values a warm, compassionate, non-judgemental approach that honours each person as the expert on their own life, and she focuses on collaboration so clients can explore options and make choices that feel right for them rather than receiving prescriptive advice.
Janet holds the BACP credential (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and a diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, Mindfulness and Domestic Violence. She supports individuals and families with a wide range of concerns, including relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, sleeping problems, stress and anxiety, LGBT issues, eating and body image concerns, parenting and blended family challenges, anger and self-esteem, career matters, depression and coping with life changes. She also offers coaching to help clients clarify goals and make constructive adjustments.
Grounded in respect and curiosity, Janet avoids labelling and works to build practical skills alongside emotional understanding. Her practice emphasises listening, evidence-informed techniques, and steady support aimed at reducing unhelpful patterns and strengthening clients' confidence in their own choices.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Janet integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her online practice. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current ways of relating and can help with abandonment, attachment issues and relationship patterns. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing an empathic, non-judgemental space where the therapist follows the client's lead to promote self-awareness and personal growth. CBT offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, useful for anxiety, stress, sleep difficulties and mood concerns.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. Janet works collaboratively with each person to identify goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time to fit the client's needs and pace.
Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - provide flexibility for people balancing work, family or geographical limits. These options make it easier to maintain regular appointments, access support from different locations and try different formats until the arrangement that best supports progress is found.
