About Greg

Greg Janiszek is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of practice. He works with stress, anxiety, anger, relationship problems, low self-esteem, addiction and grief among other concerns. Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients.

Greg uses a mix of approaches to suit the person in front of him rather than a single method. That means conversations can range from practical skills to talking through recurring patterns that started long ago. He names Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy among the approaches he draws on.

In practice sessions are straightforward and focused. Greg helps people notice the thoughts and feelings that keep recurring, try small experiments to shift reactions, and practise skills to manage emotional spikes. He also looks at relationships and attachment patterns when they help explain why certain situations trigger strong responses.

His background includes working in a mix of mental health settings, including NHS IAPT services, alongside private practice. That experience informs his ability to support people through everyday stresses and more complex concerns like trauma, grief and intimacy-related issues.

People who contact Greg can expect a practical, conversational style. He asks about current difficulties, what the person wants to change, and then works collaboratively to build strategies and awareness. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session through the online options.

How sessions work

Approaches and online working

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and learning flexible ways to respond to difficult thoughts and feelings rather than trying to get rid of them. It can help with anxiety, anger and getting back to meaningful activity. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical experiments and skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for stress, low mood and worry. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in relationships that shape how people react under pressure and can help when past relationships influence present conflicts.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work itself. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and make choices together rather than imposing a single method. That collaborative process helps keep sessions relevant and practical.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, remove travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed and offer alternatives when being on camera is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt exercises and homework to suit remote sessions so the work stays practical and goal focused.
