About Greg

Greg Janiszek offers support for common parenting pressures and related worries. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, relationship strain, anger, sleeping problems and addiction concerns. He also works with issues around ADHD, trauma and abuse, intimacy, career changes and compassion fatigue.

Greg uses a warm, respectful style in sessions. He listens without judgement and aims to help people feel seen and heard. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as thinking about patterns that keep problems going.

Background and approach

He trained as an integrative counsellor and holds a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration. He has three years' clinical experience and has worked in NHS IAPT services alongside independent practice settings. That variety has exposed him to many different presenting problems and ways of helping.

Greg draws on approaches such as client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques and acceptance and commitment ideas. He blends these to match each person’s needs rather than sticking to one single method. This allows short-term coping skills and longer-term pattern work to sit together.

Sessions are practical and conversational. He helps people make sense of their thoughts, feelings and behaviours and then tries out small changes. The aim is clearer self-awareness, more useful day-to-day coping, and a steadier sense of direction when parenting or life feels overwhelming.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches online and how they help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and small committed actions. It helps people accept difficult feelings while still moving towards what matters to them, which can be useful for stress, anxiety and parenting strain.

Client-centred therapy puts the person and their experience at the heart of the work. The therapist offers empathic listening and reflection so people can feel heard and gain clarity about their own choices.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Greg will discuss your goals and preferences, then try methods that fit your needs. Over time the work can be adjusted if a different blend of techniques seems more helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions let you see facial cues and build rapport. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a short break. Live chat or messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, written reflection and ongoing coaching between calls.
