About Justine
Justine Poyser is a counsellor registered with NCPS in the United Kingdom and has five years of professional practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem and related concerns. She also works with people facing career challenges, addictions, parenting strain and sleep or eating issues. Sessions are delivered from her private practice in Nottingham and draw on her charity experience supporting survivors of historical sexual abuse and women affected by violence.
Her approach starts from the idea that each person knows their own story. She uses client-centred methods to listen and help people find what fits for them. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when practical steps and thought patterns can make a difference. Typical work might include setting small goals, trying behaviour experiments, and practising different ways of thinking and communicating.
Justine often structures work over a number of sessions, commonly around eight weeks or longer, while adapting to individual pace. She aims to help people clarify priorities, manage distress, and build everyday coping skills. Practical topics covered include communication problems, commitment or attachment concerns, and coping with life changes such as separation or bereavement.
Her background includes placements at charities that informed her clinical work with trauma and family problems. That experience is part of how she supports parents, people affected by domestic violence, and those coping with cancer-related issues or fertility worries. She also addresses workplace stress, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related challenges.
People who meet her can expect a straightforward, collaborative process. Sessions focus on clear goals, observable steps, and reviewable progress rather than vague promises. To start, clients follow the service matching steps and schedule an initial session.

How her approaches inform online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says. It aims to clarify a person’s priorities and support their own problem-solving. This approach can help when someone needs space to talk through feelings like grief, anxiety or family stress.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours together. It uses practical steps such as setting small goals, testing unhelpful beliefs and practising new skills. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep or eating-related problems and for improving daily coping.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to agree methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. That may involve mixing listening-led sessions with structured skill practice over several meetings.
The biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm the available formats before booking so sessions can fit around work, childcare or other commitments. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, avoid travel time and fit therapy into a busy week, while telephone sessions may be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a session does not need to be on camera.
