About Me | Janis Meeks MBACP

I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and I abide by the BACP Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling & Psychotherapy. I am a qualified and experienced counsellor and I am trained to work with a variety of theoretical models. I have continued to study and update my skills during the past twenty years and now use these various skills to ensure that my client receives the very best therapy to suit their individual needs.

In 2004 I gained a NCFE in Life Coaching and continued to NCFE Diploma level. I am also a qualified Hypnotherapist and a member of the General Hypnotherapy Register. I hold a Diploma in Theraputic Counselling and also an HND in Humanistic Counselling and Psychotherapy.

I first became aware of the importance of emotional well being whilst working as a young nurse in a Psychiatric hospital with patients with severe Post Natal Depression.  In 1990 I embarked on my first training course in Psychological Counselling. I have since trained in Therapeutic Counselling, Brief Solution Focussed Counselling and Humanistic Counselling. I believe it is important to keep up with current ideas so I am constantly training and re-enforcing my knowledge. In doing so, I am gathering various tools along the way.
