About Justine
Justine Howard is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 28 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, low self-esteem and major life changes. She also supports issues linked to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment and ageing.
Her work combines two main ways of working: Person-Centred Counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, often mixed to suit the individual. In sessions she listens first and then offers practical steps when they are needed. That might mean talking through difficult memories or trying small experiments to change unhelpful thinking patterns.
Justine has long experience with concerns around body image, codependency, control and communication problems. She can help people who are dealing with chronic health conditions, caregiver stress, cancer-related issues or transitions later in life. She also has experience related to autism and avoidant personality patterns.
People can expect direct, plain discussions about what is troubling them and what might help next. She aims to break problems into manageable parts and to suggest strategies that can be practised between sessions. Sessions focus on reducing immediate distress and building skills for coping in everyday life.
Her approach is practical and person-focused. She will discuss goals, review progress and adjust the work as needed. International clients can be accepted and sessions are conducted in English.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Justine draws on Person-Centred counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. Person-Centred counselling focuses on open listening and reflecting what feels important to you, which helps people untangle difficult feelings and make sense of their experience. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and offers simple exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss what feels most helpful and try different ways of working together so the approach fits your goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where practical steps and ongoing review guide the choice of methods.
