Jane Collings, BACP

Jane uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on current problems and practical change. One common approach involves structured conversations to identify unhelpful patterns and replace them with clearer actions; this helps with anxiety, stress and relationship problems. Another approach uses trauma-informed listening and pacing to help people start to make sense of painful memories and reduce overwhelming reactions, which can support recovery from abuse or attachment wounds.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will check goals, preferences and how a client responds, then agree on methods to try. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions so techniques are useful for the person in front of them rather than applied rigidly.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people read facial expressions and share a more conversational session. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, managing intense moments between calls, or fitting therapy into a busy schedule. Registered or accredited professionals can provide consistent support across these formats, making therapy easier to fit around work, study and family life.
