About Jane

Jane Evans is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with BACP accreditation and nearly three decades of practice. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties, relationship strains, grief, depression and addiction. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, career pressures, low self-esteem and life transitions.

She keeps sessions straightforward and person-focused. Jane listens first, then helps clients name patterns and try small changes. She uses practical conversations to help people understand what gets in the way and to build clearer steps forward.

Her background includes work in schools, further education, universities, private practice, the voluntary sector and employee assistance programmes. That range has involved both short-term counselling and longer-term therapy for many different concerns.

Jane practises in line with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework. She has provided face-to-face and online counselling since 1995 and also works as a supervisor and trainer for others in the field.

She has been closely involved in developing online counselling and supervision in the UK. That work has included organising conferences and contributing to national discussions about computer-mediated counselling.

People who choose her often want a calm, non-judgemental space to think things through, with practical ways to manage day-to-day difficulties and improve rest and routine where sleep is an issue.

Approaches in online therapy and what they involve

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and refocus on what matters to them. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and problems that sap motivation by suggesting small, value-based actions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers practical tools for sleep problems, low mood and anxiety by testing unhelpful thinking and changing routines.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centres on emotions and close relationships, helping people understand feelings and improve emotional connection. This can help with intimacy-related issues and relationship distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust plans as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking. The biography lists instant messaging, webcam and voice (telephone) as past options, but confirm current choices. Online sessions can be easier to fit into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins, and make it simpler to connect when travel is difficult.
