About Jane
Jane Nicholls offers calm, practical help for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or life changes. She writes plainly and listens, helping people name what is happening and take small steps that feel manageable. Jane aims to make the first contact straightforward and non-threatening for someone who is worried about starting therapy.
Jane is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, with four years of practice experience.
Background and approach
She draws on several approaches and adjusts them to the person in front of her rather than using one fixed method. Sessions are conversational and focused on what matters most to the person who comes for help. In practice she uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.
Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to notice and adjust unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Trauma-focused ways of working help when painful past events are affecting day-to-day life. Jane also pays attention to common concerns such as self-esteem, sadness, grief, sleep and eating difficulties, and problems with anger or impulsivity.
She supports people dealing with addiction, compassion fatigue and the stress of major life changes. People who need help with communication problems, intimacy worries, separation and loss, or feelings of isolation can expect a steady, person-centred approach. Conversations aim to build clearer understanding, healthier coping and more choice about next steps.

Online support
Cognitive behavioural techniques help spot unhelpful thoughts and habits, and then test small changes in thinking and behaviour. These methods are useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep and eating difficulties, and can be practised between sessions whether on video or by phone.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences and then tailor a mix of methods that fit the person's needs. That way the plan can change as progress is made and new issues arise.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a longer discussion is needed, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while still following the chosen therapeutic approach.
