About Jane

Jane Evans is a counsellor with nearly three decades of experience helping people who feel stuck. She supports those facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship difficulties, addiction and many life changes. Her practice also covers issues such as sleep and eating problems, self-esteem, parenting concerns, ADHD and challenges linked to trauma and abuse.

She writes plainly and meets people where they are. Sessions aim to make things easier to talk about and to find practical ways forward. She uses a mix of well known psychological approaches to suit different needs rather than a single fixed method.

Jane has worked across schools, further education, universities, private practice, the voluntary sector and employee assistance programmes. That range of settings has shaped a flexible style for short term counselling and longer term therapy. She has experience supporting counsellors and organisations as a supervisor and trainer.

Her practice follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework; her credential is BACP. She has been involved in developing online counselling services and was an active member and organiser in online counselling professional groups and conferences.

Jane offers online sessions and lets people choose the medium that suits them. To begin, people use the Start Therapy process on the site, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule sessions according to her availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online counselling

Jane uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and to try small, practical changes that can reduce symptoms such as anxiety or low mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is also part of her work and focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy is used when issues around trust, closeness or past relationships are central to the difficulty being discussed.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will listen to what matters to you, talk through different options and agree a plan that fits your needs and goals. Sessions can change over time as priorities shift, and she aims to check in regularly about what is helping.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy day and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep continuity of care when people are in different places. The biography states that online counselling is offered by instant messaging, webcam or voice telephone; please confirm which formats suit you before booking so you can choose what fits your routines.
