About Greg

Greg Janiszek is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting pressures, grief, and issues around intimacy and self‑esteem. He also supports people dealing with ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, and the practical effects of life change.

Greg uses straightforward conversation to help people make sense of difficult feelings. He listens for patterns that link past experience to current struggles. He then uses practical strategies from cognitive and behavioural methods alongside reflective work on attachment and relationships.

Sessions aim to be focused and manageable. Greg combines person‑centred listening with tools for emotional regulation and clearer communication. That mix is intended to help people cope better day to day while also understanding deeper roots of recurring problems.

He has worked in a range of mental health settings, including NHS IAPT services, and in private practice. That background informs how he balances short‑term goals with longer term reflection. His approach is flexible and adjusts to what a person needs at different points.

People often come for help with parenting stress, family conflict, career strain, or persistent worry. Greg encourages clear, realistic steps alongside reflection on past relationships and attachment patterns. The aim is practical improvement in everyday life and a clearer sense of what to try next.

How sessions work

How Greg uses therapeutic approaches online

Greg commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment‑Based work. ACT focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and learning practical ways to act on personal values despite them. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and challenges where worry or avoidance gets in the way. Attachment‑based work looks at how past relationships shape present patterns and helps people understand recurring conflicts or emotional responses.

He also uses client‑centred principles that keep the conversation focused on the person’s experience. Deciding which approaches to use is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adjust methods as the work progresses so the plan fits what a person needs now.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example shorter check‑in sessions that suit a work break, or avoiding travel time on a busy day. It can also allow people to use sessions from different locations when that helps them manage other responsibilities. Registered or accredited professionals often find practical ways to arrange sessions that fit a person’s schedule and daily demands.
