About Jane

Jane Evans is a BACP-registered counsellor with 28 years of practice in mental health care in the United Kingdom. She has supported people presenting with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, parenting strain and a wide range of other issues. Her work also covers ADHD, eating and sleeping difficulties, intimacy concerns and career-related stress.

She has worked across schools, further education, universities, private practice, the voluntary sector and employee assistance programmes. That range means she is used to short-term counselling and longer-term therapy. Sessions have addressed trauma and abuse, family-related worries, self-esteem and coping with life changes.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. In practice this means talking through feelings and patterns, learning practical ways to manage difficult thoughts, and looking at how relationships and attachments affect everyday life.

Jane describes her work as non-judgemental and anti-discriminatory. She has experience offering online work and has been involved in developing computer-mediated counselling and supervision in the UK since 2006. She has also provided consultancy and training around e-counselling.

Practical arrangements use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, the site asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. If a reader needs confirmation of current session options, they should check before booking.

How sessions work

How Jane uses therapy approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values. It can help when someone is stuck with anxiety, stress or difficulty making changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and close relationships shape feelings and behaviour; it is useful for understanding recurring relationship patterns and intimacy-related concerns. Client-Centred Therapy centres the person's own experience and pace, using listening and reflection to help people make sense of their feelings and decisions. Choosing an approach is part of the work. Jane will discuss which methods fit the issues you bring, your goals and what feels workable for you. That choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses. The biography notes she has offered online counselling via instant messaging, webcam and voice (telephone). If you need the most current session options, confirm them before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Working remotely also means sessions can be arranged from different locations and adjusted for practical needs, while the therapist and client focus on clear goals and useful strategies together.
