Justine Whitehill

Justine Whitehill offers a calm, welcoming space for people worried about eating and food-related issues and related concerns. She writes in a warm, straightforward way and focuses on building trust first. Sessions aim to help people feel heard, seen and able to make decisions that suit their lives.

Justine works from a person-centred foundation, which means she follows the person's lead and listens closely. She uses deep listening, warmth and empathy to help people talk through stress, anxiety, grief, low mood and relationship difficulties. Her approach is flexible and draws on creative tools when these might help someone express themselves.

She has four years' experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, abbreviated BACP. That registration is noted as part of her background and professional standing in the UK.

Justine has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief and bereavement, addiction, parenting strain, ADHD, body image and attachment issues. She also helps people manage anger, control issues, impulsivity and the strain that comes from caregiving and chronic illness.

People who come to her for help can expect an intuitive, person-led process. She adapts her methods to the individual's pace and needs, using creative approaches where helpful. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist's availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Justine works from a person-centred foundation which focuses on listening closely and following what matters to the client. This approach helps people feel understood and gives them room to set their own pace while discussing eating and food-related issues or other concerns.

She also adapts creative therapy techniques when they will help someone express difficult feelings. Creative methods can include drawing, journalling prompts or other expressive tasks that make it easier to talk about body image, grief or trauma without relying only on words.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options together and decide what seems most helpful based on the person's goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can change over time as needs shift.

Practical benefits of online work can include easier fit with busy days and fewer travel demands. Online appointments may make it simpler to schedule brief check-ins during a lunch break or to keep meeting regularly when life changes make attending in person harder.
