Janette Potts, BACP

Janette Potts is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, depression, and anger among other concerns. Sessions are client-led and focused on helping someone make sense of what is happening in their life.

Janette describes her work as integrative. She draws on several therapeutic approaches and adapts them to what the person needs in the room. Sessions aim to identify where problems have come from and to create practical steps that reduce overwhelm and repeated patterns.

She has experience supporting people with health-related challenges and long-term conditions. That includes helping clients manage chronic pain, illness or disability alongside emotional strain. She also works with issues such as addiction, grief, parenting stress, and career pressures.

Janette completed a Level 7 Diploma in counselling supervision and continues to learn through professional development. Her method is collaborative - she listens, reflects, and helps people build workable plans for change. The work often blends talking, practical exercises, and mindfulness techniques.

People can expect a straightforward style that keeps sessions focused on what they want to change. Janette asks questions, offers observations linked to evidence-based approaches, and supports clients to try different ways of responding to anger, stress, or difficult relationships.
