Janet Willis

Hello, my name is Janet. I am an integrative counsellor in the North Essex area. I am a member of Â鶹ԭ´´. Thank you for looking at my profile. I hope you find the information useful.

I offer a confidential and safe place to explore your feelings, together with a non-judgmental, comfortable, relaxing space for my clients to develop and grow. Together we explore your feelings, thoughts and beliefs about yourself, your relationship with others and your life experiences. We often repeat patterns of behaviour we are not conscious of, and we have a tendency to avoid thinking about painful or traumatic experiences. Counselling is about exploring and confronting these feelings and patterns. I believe everyone has within them the capacity for change. I believe in the holistic approach in striving for balance within our lives through the connection between our minds and bodies. Counselling can help restore and promote a sense of internal balance. I will support you on your journey and throughout your therapeutic experience, allowing you to find your meaning of a happy life.

Being integrative means that I am not set by a single counselling theory; instead, I can use many methods of therapeutic intervention to give you a completely personal experience in moving forward with any issues you may be having. Issues could include abuse, trauma, or neglect, isolation or loneliness, discrimination, bereavement, stress, anxiety, depression, feelings about poor physical health, unemployment or redundancy, being a long-term carer for someone, drug and alcohol misuse, etc. By listening to you and understanding your needs, I would use my knowledge and experience to use the most appropriate theory or theories to help you to move on in your life.

As well as my work as a counsellor, I have over twenty years’ experience working in the London Transport Industry.
