About Jane
Jane Sheppard works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and career pressures. She offers calm, practical support to help people take the first steps toward change. Jane presents in a straightforward way that aims to put a worried parent at ease when reading on a phone.
Jane uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships still affect feelings now.
Background and approach
She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try small, manageable changes. Sessions also include client-centred listening so people feel heard and respected. Her background includes four years of professional practice in the United Kingdom.
She holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as BACP in her credentials. That experience has included supporting people through loss, breakup, addiction and caring stress as well as issues linked to adoption, abandonment and attachment concerns. In a session Jane offers practical tools alongside reflective conversation.
People can expect clear explanations, gentle challenges and short exercises to try between sessions. The aim is to build skills that make day-to-day life easier. Jane works in English and does not take international clients.
Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, and are arranged via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability. This helps match goals and practical needs before sessions begin.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and work together with the person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process means plans can change as progress is made or priorities shift.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a visual connection is helpful. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is low or a quieter, hands-free check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing check-ins between sessions or when written reflection feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, school runs or caring responsibilities while keeping the focus on progress and practical coping skills.
