About Jane
Counsellor Jane Stevens is a BACP member with seven years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self esteem, depression and coping with life changes. Sessions in English take place for people in the United Kingdom.
Jane has worked with teenagers and adults in several settings. She has particular experience supporting people on the autism spectrum with difficulties such as communication problems and isolation. She also helps people who are dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, panic attacks, mood shifts and the aftermath of traumatic events.
Her approach focuses on building a steady therapeutic relationship and helping people make sense of their reactions. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and client-centred methods to follow the person’s pace. Somatic and trauma-focused techniques are used when the body or past events need attention.
In a typical session she listens, reflects and asks practical questions that aim to clarify what is causing distress. She supports practical coping strategies for day-to-day life alongside exploring deeper patterns that keep problems repeating. Sessions move at a pace agreed with the client.
Jane describes herself as approachable and direct in how she works. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Jane uses attachment-based therapy to look at how early and adult relationships shape current reactions. This helps when patterns of mistrust, abandonment or repeated conflict cause distress. Client-centred work is about following the person’s pace and focusing on what the client brings to the session; it suits people who need someone to listen and reflect rather than direct advice.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jane will discuss goals, personal style and practical needs with each person and agree which methods to try. That collaboration helps decide whether to focus on relationship patterns, bodily reactions, or trauma processing at any point.
If you want to proceed, confirm the session formats offered before booking. The profile does not list specific formats, so please check current options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, avoid travel, or have shorter check-ins when time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the same therapeutic methods used in person to remote sessions, and the therapist will agree a format that suits your everyday schedule.
