Janice Dias Dabawala helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low or stuck. She supports those coping with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, addiction and grief. She also works with people facing parenting challenges, career shifts, anger and compassion fatigue.

Janice draws on practical talking approaches to make change feel manageable. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape sessions. Conversations are personalised so people can target what matters most to them.

Background and approach

Her background includes eight years of professional practice in the United Kingdom. Janice is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She combines short-term strategies with deeper reflective work depending on a person's needs.

In sessions Janice aims to listen carefully, offer straightforward options and help clients try small steps that build confidence. She focuses on everyday adjustments as well as understanding patterns that keep problems going. Janice encourages people to move at a pace that feels workable.

The initial steps are simple - talk about current difficulties, agree practical goals and choose techniques to try between sessions. Her approach is steady and task-focused, while still leaving room for emotional reflection.

Approaches for online therapy and how they help

Janice often uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, a hands-on method that looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. CBT helps people break unhelpful patterns and try new behaviours, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people become more aware of the present moment and reduce reactivity. Mindfulness techniques can support coping with stress, cravings and difficult emotions by teaching simple attention practices.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. Janice will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest whether short practical steps, mindfulness exercises or deeper reflective work will help most. That choice is made together and can change over time.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls suit conversations that benefit from face-to-face interaction, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a short break at work. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around daily life and commitments, and to try different formats as needs change.
