Janet Bellis, NCPS

Janet Bellis is a psychotherapist registered with NCPS and has five years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship problems, low self-esteem and anger. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Janet uses an integrative style that draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She aims to work collaboratively, helping people identify what is getting in the way and practised ways to change it. Practical skills and the client’s own goals guide the work.

Her background includes work with a major UK mental health charity and with people from diverse cultural and national backgrounds. That experience informs how she responds to different life situations, from bereavement to shifts in career or family roles. She pays attention to how past relationships and attachment patterns can affect present behaviour and feelings.

In sessions she helps clients notice unhelpful patterns, build emotional skills and try out different coping strategies. That might include spotting thoughts that escalate anger, practising breathing or grounding techniques from DBT, or noticing values and action steps through ACT. The emphasis is on clear, usable steps rather than abstract theory.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment. Janet uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary by location.
