About Jane
Jane Evans is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression and relationship worries. She also supports those dealing with phobias, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, low self-esteem and life changes. She has practised in mental health since 1995 and brings long experience to each session.
Her work is straightforward and centred on the person in front of her. She listens, helps people name what feels difficult, and looks for small, practical steps to make things more manageable.
Background and approach
Sessions have been offered in short-term and longer-term formats depending on what someone needs. Over decades she has worked across schools, further education, universities, voluntary services, independent practice and employee assistance programmes. That variety has given her experience with many different life problems and ages of clients.
She has also provided supervision and training in online counselling. Her professional registration is with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, commonly shown as BACP. That frames how she works and the ethical standards she follows.
She has been part of national online counselling initiatives and conference work since the mid-2000s. In sessions she draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural ideas, attachment-focused thinking and emotionally-focused and client-centred ways of working. She aims to help people understand patterns in their life and find realistic ways to move forward.
People meeting her online can choose messaging, webcam or voice calls. She will usually discuss which format feels most helpful during an initial conversation.
Approaches online and how they help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without fighting them, and then to choose actions that match their values. It can help when anxiety, avoidance or life changes make it hard to move forward.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It is frequently used for anxiety, phobias, low mood and sleep or eating difficulties.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and emotional reactions. It can be useful for relationship stress, intimacy issues and for people who notice repeated patterns in their connections with others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and help decide what fits best with a client's goals and day-to-day life. That choice is made together and can be adjusted as therapy continues.
Online sessions offer flexibility and choice. Video calls let people keep visual contact and read non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or suit lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing check-ins and written reflections between conversations. These formats make it easier to fit counselling into work, study or busy family routines while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
