How Jane uses therapeutic approaches online

Jane draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to help people notice how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach looks at attachment needs and how they show up in close relationships, which can help with issues like abandonment or intimacy difficulties.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, to identify unhelpful thoughts and to try practical experiments. CBT aims to break cycles of thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and can be helpful for anxiety, low mood and stress-related problems.

Finding the right approach is something the therapist will work through with each person. Jane views therapy as a collaborative process and will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to use and adjust them as work progresses.

If you are considering online work, please confirm current session options before booking as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and travel. They can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or let someone choose audio rather than video if that is easier. Registered or accredited professionals can help make online sessions feel practical and workable within daily life.
