Hello and thank you for visiting Janet Smith Emotional Wellness Coaching.
Finding the right help can seem a daunting prospect. It’s all about building a safe relationship where you can open-up, feel truly heard and explore your potential. You may have been recommended by a previous client or stumbled across my site. However, you got here, I want to welcome you. I am here to help and am passionate about supporting your emotional wellbeing and encouraging good mental health.
So, a bit about me…
I set up Janet Smith Emotional Wellness Coaching over 11 years ago and since then have worked with hundreds of clients. I see myself as a lifelong learner, passionate about developing myself and others. I have just completed my ILM Level 7 in Senior Executive Coaching & Mentoring and bring both my personal and professional development into the work I do.
Throughout my training and the years that followed, I have had a varied and exciting journey working with some very vulnerable people in society through charities such as Peace4Life, Key4Life, The Wilderness Foundation and Bristol Young Offenders Institute. In business, I have also worked on transformational change programmes with Ineo Life. I have further been a mentor for 5 years on the Reboot program for The Eaga Trust and I am a facilitator for Let’s Reset.
I have learnt from each of these experiences.
I have always had a passion for helping others and spent years in the role of the “counsellor” before I ever took up the training. A naturally empathic person, I always wanted the best for those I met and spent 20 years in Customer Service before setting up my own business with a friend, The All Woman Show.
During this time, I studied philosophy and embraced the positive psychology of speakers such as Dr Wayne Dyer, Eckhart Tolle and The Secret. I was searching, I was learning but I had no real sense of where I was heading. However, I was awakening to my own spiritual and personal journey. Then in 2010, major life events directed me to a point where I was very vulnerable, alone, and frightened. I made a choice then to succeed in rebuilding my life, to keep well and look after those I care for. It was a crossroads. I chose the road less travelled and stepped away from what I knew into the unknown.
“I’m not a teacher: only a fellow traveller of whom you asked the way. I pointed ahead – ahead of myself as well as you.”
I embarked on my journey...
I trained as an NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) Master Practitioner, advanced clinical hypnotherapist, and psychodynamic counsellor. I became involved with The Rowans Hospice and volunteered as a Bereavement Counsellor. My desire and drive was to help others heal emotionally from the difficulties of their past and succeed in living the life they were born to live.
It was important for me to incorporate various methodologies to create transformational change. I created Janet Smith Emotional Wellness Coaching to do just that. I always feel privileged and humbled to work with clients who often share with me their inner-most fears, emotions, aspirations, and life stories. It is a unique relationship, and I would like to assure you of my confidentiality, professionalism and determination to help you achieve your goals.
I am fully insured. I take part in regular Supervision and have an enhanced CRB check. I am an Accredited Member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society, American Board of Hypnotherapy, and American Board of Neuro Linguistic Programming.
People would say that I am gentle, warm, approachable, and caring. Yet rather than hearing it from me, please check out my testimonials.
“Don’t die with your music still in you”
Although life is always full and busy, I make time to maintain my own health and wellbeing. I am a mother to 3 grown up sons, a grandmother, and partner. I spend time in Mauritius each winter where I get to embrace a different culture, with days on the beach or out exploring the island and then working with clients online. I have completed my Level 1 Reiki and Lotus Chakra course, as well as an introduction to mediumship. I am a very novice gardener, love long walks, going to the gym and am a seasoned yogi of 30 years plus and still practicing! I regularly meditate and believe in the power of the universal energy which unites us all.
Please feel free to contact me for a free, no obligation, 30 minute consultation.
