How her approaches work online and in practice
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor gives space to tell your story and reflects back what she hears. This approach helps when someone needs acceptance and clarity about feelings, such as grief or low self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings. It uses simple exercises and small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety, panic and stress. CBT can be useful when someone wants practical ways to manage symptoms and cope with daily pressures.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jane will discuss options and try ways that suit your goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape whether sessions lean more towards listening, practical tasks, or a mix of both.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, as this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Telephone sessions use less bandwidth and video sessions let you use visual cues; choose what best fits your routine and comfort.
