About Janine
Janine Hodge is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of clinical experience. She began Courage2Be Counselling Services in 2019 and combines psychotherapy with coaching in her work. Janine also teaches counselling and provides clinical supervision.
She helps people who are managing anxiety, low mood, stress, relationship strain and parenting challenges. She also works with issues such as trauma, grief, anger, compassion fatigue, ADHD and concerns linked to identity and self-esteem. Her practice includes support for LGBT concerns and problems rooted in family dynamics.
Janine uses an integrative approach. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based ideas, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Client-Centred methods and Solution-Focused work among other models. In sessions she looks for repeating patterns that keep someone stuck and then helps reduce the noise of intrusive thoughts so clients can make clearer choices.
Her style blends coaching and psychotherapy. That means practical steps and reflective work appear side by side. Janine often explores how past relationships and upbringing shape current behaviour and helps people shift unhelpful patterns.
When someone starts with her they map current difficulties, identify the beliefs behind them and work on changing those patterns. The aim is to build clearer ways of thinking and acting that support better mood, healthier relationships and stronger self-belief.

How her approaches translate to remote work
Janine commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-based ideas in her practice. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and committing to actions that match a person’s values, which can help with anxiety, low mood and getting unstuck. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and can aid people who struggle with trust, closeness or repeated relationship difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Janine works collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s needs and goals. She combines coaching and therapeutic techniques and adjusts plans as progress is made so the approach stays relevant to what the client wants to achieve.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, make shorter catch-ups possible and reduce travel time. Remote work can also let someone choose quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera for some meetings or use a phone call when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals commonly adapt exercises from ACT and attachment work for remote sessions, using reflection, behavioural tasks and values-based actions that can be practised between meetings.
