Janey’s sessions have had a profound impact on my life, it is evident that these sessions will have a lasting impression and a positive influence, helping me to navigate my way through life. I feel deeply connected with my identity as a woman, which is empowering and has been a transformative experience. It is a testament to Janey’s skill and dedication.

I had been feeling the urge to find a therapist and I didn’t know where to start. Janey came recommended. The sessions were free flowing and gentle. For someone like me who is impatient and wants to get things done NOW this in itself was a massive teaching. Too much, too fast, too soon is as detrimental to you as the stuff you’re dealing with. I learnt how to be patient and allow myself to feel rather than over think everything. I learned to love parts of me I had ignored or never even knew existed. I learned how to be present and not keep escaping into thought. Most of all I learned how to be me, to like and love me. Janey is patient, kind and funny.

I find you sincere and truthful, approachable and very empowering… I feel that you bring your whole self to the group, and you allow us to see your own struggles and vulnerabilities. I feel I have learnt a lot through your positive example.

Therapy has taught me so much – compassion for myself, patience with the process and a love for the parts of me I couldn’t find a way to appreciate before. I couldn’t have done this parts of my journey with anyone better than Janey. She has been like a parent I needed when I was a child, a grandparent that I never had, my therapist but most of all a best friend by my side through the whole thing.

Therapy helps you release and let go of pain and hurt which you may do this through tears, anger etc. It can be a challenging process, but it’s SO worth it. I would highly recommend therapy with Janey for anyone who wants to go deep into the parts of them that they don’t understand, you won’t only understand them but you’ll make great friends with them too!

Janey doesn’t rush you, doesn’t force you and is very good at knowing what you can and can’t push through (without you even having to know or understand your limits yourself). Another thing I loved about Janey, is she not only helped me find patience and compassion for myself but she made me understand I am worthy of being in this world just as I am, I didn’t need fixing, I just needed to feel what I needed to feel.

Another thing I really valued about Janey, is I talk ALOT, she was very good at bringing me back to what I was feeling in the moment and stopped me running off track with words. This showed me her priority was to make sure I could get the most value from each session.

If you want to feel safe, held, really supported and like you matter just as you are. do book in a session with Janey. If it is anything like my experience, you won’t regret it! find you sincere and truthful, approachable and very empowering… I feel that you bring your whole self to the group, and you allow us to see your own struggles and vulnerabilities. I feel I have learnt a lot through your positive example.

I admire the way in which you are able to sense and pick up on the unspoken, and then refer to it in a totally non-threatening way which invites people to say exactly what is going on for them. I have come to believe more in myself as a result of working with you, so I am truly grateful to you.

-S.T.

I value your warmth, patience and sensitivity – qualities which have helped to create a safe place to express feelings.

-S.P.

During my year with you as a facilitator for our group, I have felt safe. Your ability to see and hear and even feel us as individuals is very nurturing and so helpful in my struggle towards self-acceptance and self-love. I have noticed how sensitive and perceptive you are. I also feel you have been very present and alive in the group, although you have never made me feel you had any need to be the centre of attention.

-L.G.

The word ‘encouragement’ often pops up when I think of your approach, and I believe you combine this with compassion and humour.

-N.D.

Janey’s presence has been both gentle and strong in supporting me to share what was going on with me. When I had the experience of being terrified and shaking a lot in my body, she guided me and reassured me that I was releasing trauma. She invited me to allow what was going on to be just there, which I did, and she was right there with me.

She has also guided me in an inquiry about the constant inner dialogue that various conflicting parts of me were having and, through the process of recognising the voices within, I was able to see how much power the inner saboteur was having on the more wise and intuitive parts of my being. Janey’s love and passion is awake and evident in her very beingness.

-J.W..

I have been supported by Janey for half a year now. I really enjoy the space that Janey holds. It is very nurturing and safe. I always feel nourished at the end of a session.

-B.B.

I have known Janey for over twenty years and, during this time, have witnessed her deep and intimate understanding of the human condition. Her own personal journey of awakening and learning gives her wisdom and love in abundance which is shared with those around her. Anyone engaging with Janey through her work will not be disappointed.
