About Jana
Counsellor Jana Ogg is registered with BACP and has three years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English from the United Kingdom.
Jana uses a person-centred approach. That means she listens without judging and follows what matters to the individual in the room. She aims to help people understand their feelings and make choices that feel manageable day to day.
Her background includes supporting people with a wide range of concerns. These include neurodiversity, confidence and self-worth problems, loss and bereavement, depression, anxiety and stress. She has additional experience supporting people after pregnancy loss and the death of a child.
Jana also has experience with matters such as addiction, sexuality, gender, disability, homelessness and relationship breakdown. In practical terms she helps people talk through what is happening, notice patterns that cause distress and find ways to cope in daily life.
People who contact her usually start by saying what they hope to change or manage. Jana works collaboratively on that. Sessions focus on what matters now and on clear, manageable steps between meetings.
Therapeutic approaches and online counselling
Jana describes her work as person-centred. That approach means the counsellor gives attention to what the person brings each session and follows their lead. It suits people who want a non-directive space to talk things through and make their own decisions.The biography also refers to evidence-based therapeutic techniques. In practice that can include focused conversations about thoughts and behaviours and simple exercises to try between sessions. These methods help with anxiety, low mood and coping with loss by targeting everyday patterns that keep problems going.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. Jana will discuss different ways of working and agree what feels most helpful based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. She aims to make decisions about method and pace together with the person in the room.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits. Ask about the exact session format offered when you book so you can plan practical arrangements.
