About Greg

Greg Janiszek is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' professional experience. He works with young adults and others on issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, self-esteem, ADHD, grief and coping with life changes. He also supports people dealing with addiction, trauma, sleep problems and parenting stress.

Greg uses an integrative approach that draws on several therapies rather than one fixed model. Sessions are practical and conversational. He helps people notice patterns, try small changes and focus on what matters to them now.

He often blends cognitive behavioural techniques with person-centred listening. That means clients can work on thinking and behaviour strategies alongside being heard and understood. Attachment-based ideas also inform his way of looking at relationship and intimacy issues.

Greg has worked in a mix of settings, including NHS IAPT services and private practice. That background gives him experience with a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges and with different ways of working.

In sessions he aims to make problems clearer and to build steps people can use between meetings. Work might include learning strategies for managing strong emotions, shifting unhelpful thinking, improving communication, or setting goals for work and life. The emphasis is on straightforward, practical help that fits into everyday life.

How Greg uses different therapies online

Greg draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy in his work. ACT focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can be useful for intimacy, trust and communication issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Greg will discuss options with the client and agree a plan together based on needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process means therapy can shift as priorities change, for example moving from stabilising skills to deeper relational work.

The therapist's original profile does not specify session formats. Please confirm which online formats are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, shifts, commuting or other commitments. Some formats are better for short check-ins or when video is difficult, while others suit longer, in-depth conversations. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use online work to help clients practise techniques between sessions and to maintain steady progress without major travel.
