About Janet Kwegan
Janet Kwegan is a family-oriented therapist with more than 10 years of practical experience across health and community settings in the United Kingdom. She has worked with clients within the NHS, a women’s centre, a hospice, a bereavement agency, a perinatal mental health charity, a cancer support centre and a men’s counselling service, bringing a breadth of frontline experience to her clinical work.
Trained in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), person-centred approaches, and phenomenological methods, she combines these ways of working to tailor therapy to each person’s needs. Her practice is informed by an existential outlook that does not judge emotional distress but rather explores how a person uniquely experiences life. Janet helps clients examine their relationships, identity, values, choices and sense of purpose as part of that process.
She supports people at moments of acute difficulty and also with longer-term reflection and self-discovery. In addition to responding to the range of issues clients bring, she works specifically with life transitions, decision-making and negotiating change, and with non-traditional relationship arrangements. Janet aims to provide a calm, supportive space in which people can make sense of what is troubling them and begin to move toward recovery and change.
Janet holds BACP, meaning she is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK. She offers therapy in English and Yoruba and welcomes people who are ready to begin work on their concerns.
