About Justine
Justine Whitehill is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with young adults and others facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, depression and major life changes. Her practice also covers concerns such as addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career worries and ADHD.
Justine uses a person-centred foundation that focuses on listening and building trust. She pays attention to each person's pace and needs, and brings in other therapeutic ideas when they fit. Sessions are conversational and practical, with room for creative methods if that helps someone express themselves.
She has clinical experience with attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, control and impulsivity, and the effects of domestic violence and separation. She also supports people working through guilt, shame, forgiveness and family conflict.
Justine describes her style as intuitive and responsive. She helps people reflect on what they want to change and tries different ways of working until something feels useful. That can include looking at patterns in relationships, managing strong emotions, or learning ways to cope with daily pressures.
Clients can expect straightforward conversations about goals and next steps. The counselling process is collaborative and focused on practical coping strategies as well as emotional understanding. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Justine uses different approaches in online counselling
Justine works from a person-centred base, which means sessions focus on listening, understanding and following what matters to the client. This helps with issues like anxiety, low mood and relationship stress by giving space to talk through feelings and choices.She also integrates other evidence-based techniques as needed. That might include behaviour-focused strategies to manage intense reactions or practical coping skills for stress and addiction. These approaches aim to reduce distress and build day-to-day tools clients can use outside sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Justine discusses options with each person and adjusts the way she works based on their goals, preferences and what proves helpful. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around study, work or travel and remove commute time. They can also allow shorter check-ins or flexible scheduling that suits a young adult juggling college, shifts or other responsibilities.
