Jane Evans, BACP

Jane Evans is a counsellor with decades of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, relationship issues and life transitions. She supports those facing depression, addictions, parenting challenges, caregiving strain and concerns linked to ageing and geriatric issues. Jane uses a calm, direct style to help people find practical ways forward when life feels overwhelming.

She offers short-term counselling and longer-term therapy depending on what people need. Sessions focus on understanding feelings, identifying unhelpful patterns, and working out small, manageable changes. Her work draws on a range of therapy approaches to match different issues and preferences.

Jane has worked in schools, further education, universities, the voluntary sector, employee assistance programmes and private practice. That variety has given her experience with many different presenting problems and a practical sense of what helps in day-to-day life.

Her practice follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework, and she also provides supervision and training online. She has been involved in developing online counselling and has contributed to conferences and initiatives in that field.

People can expect a non-judgemental, inclusive approach. Jane aims to create a respectful space where trust can grow and progress can begin. She works in English and accepts international clients.

Therapy approaches that work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to small actions that reflect their values. It can help with anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and aims to build safer ways of relating to self and others, which can be useful for intimacy and relationship concerns. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of sessions, offering a non-judgemental space where people can talk things through and arrive at their own solutions.

Choosing the right approach is usually collaborative. Jane will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they will decide which method or combination feels most helpful. That process is part of therapy rather than a one-off decision.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or giving options for webcam, voice or instant messaging if those suit better. Confirm the exact session options when booking to make sure they match personal circumstances and daily routines.
