About Janice
Janice Stack is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, motivation, self-esteem and confidence, and a wide range of life challenges including relationship and family concerns. Janice focuses on practical steps people can use day to day rather than medical labels or quick fixes.
She asks questions and listens to how people describe their problems. That helps her spot small changes that can make a big difference. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with space to work through feelings and figure out what helps in real life.
Janice draws on a few different methods to match the person she is working with. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help manage difficult thoughts and patterns. Attachment-based ideas are used when relationship histories affect present-day reactions.
People often come to her for parenting strain, grief, addiction-related worries, or difficulty coping with life changes. She also works with issues such as body image, intimacy-related concerns, sleep and eating questions, and problems linked to anger or stress.
Her approach is collaborative. Janice helps people set clear, achievable steps and checks progress together. She encourages practical strategies that fit into busy family lives and day-to-day routines.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that reflect what matters most. It can be useful for stress, anxiety and motivation by focusing on values and small behavioural steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and behaviours that keep problems going and offers practical ways to test and change them. It often helps with anxiety, low mood, sleep and eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationship experiences shape reactions now and can help when relationship patterns, intimacy or family roles cause strain.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adapt them as the work progresses.
The original biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm the options when you book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time. They can also support regular continuity of care when life or work makes in-person visits difficult. Registered or accredited professionals will discuss a practical plan for meetings that suits your schedule and needs.
