About Jane
Jane Nicholls is a counsellor who helps people who are anxious, stressed or coping with big life changes. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space for someone to talk through what feels overwhelming and to find ways forward. Jane uses an integrative style and aims to put each person first when planning sessions.
She works with issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy problems, grief, addiction and trauma. She also supports people facing career pressures, parenting strain, difficulties sleeping or eating, and feelings of isolation or low self-esteem.
Background and approach
Additional concerns she addresses include attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems, control struggles and dissociation. Jane practises using approaches drawn from attachment-based work, client-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural methods and trauma-focused therapy. In sessions she listens, reflects and helps people try practical steps that may reduce distress.
Conversations are used to identify patterns, test new ways of coping and build skills for everyday life. She holds BACP accreditation. BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and is the credential listed in her profile.
Jane has four years of counselling experience working with a range of emotional and practical concerns. Sessions can be done by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and people start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling according to therapist availability.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can help people notice those patterns in their present relationships and try new ways of relating. Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the process and uses empathic listening to help people feel heard and understood. This approach supports emotional clarity and builds trust even when meeting remotely.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and helps people test small changes. In online sessions CBT techniques can be practised in real time and applied between meetings to manage anxiety, stress or sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they will choose or combine methods and review how things are going as therapy continues.
Online therapy offers practical benefits. Video calls make it possible to have fuller conversations and read non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter, simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit short exchanges, ongoing support between sessions or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options aim to make counselling more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
