About Jane

Jane Evans is a counsellor with more than 28 years' experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma and life changes. She helps people who are coping with health challenges, relationship strain, addictions, and concerns about self-esteem and identity. Her manner is calm and non-judgemental, and she aims to make it easier to find a way forward when things feel stuck.

Her work mixes short-term and longer-term support depending on what helps a person most. She uses plain language in sessions and focuses on what a person wants to change or understand. That might include practical steps, new ways of thinking about difficult feelings, or looking at how past attachments shape current patterns.

Jane trained and works within the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy framework, recorded as BACP. She has worked in schools, universities, private practice, the voluntary sector and employee assistance programmes since 1995. Over the years she has supported people with issues ranging from chronic illness and caregiving stress to eating difficulties and ADHD-related challenges.

She also has experience offering consultancy, training and supervision in online counselling. Jane has been involved in national activity around computer-mediated counselling and has contributed to conferences and training events on online practice.

When someone reaches out she will talk about what they want from counselling, suggest an approach that fits their needs, and agree how to work together. Practical options for working online are discussed so a person can pick what suits their life and schedule.

How online approaches and therapy styles work together

Jane commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy in her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it supports taking practical steps towards a valued life. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and building a trusting relationship so people can explore feelings and decisions at their own pace.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try a way of working collaboratively. That conversation helps shape whether sessions focus more on practical skills, exploring attachment history, or on open, supportive listening.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time, which can make it easier to keep regular appointments. Different online options have different pros and cons, so confirm which formats are currently offered before booking. The therapist will help plan timings and a working method that suits daily life and the issues being addressed.
