About Jane
Jane Stannard works in a client-centred way, helping people feel heard and understood as they face stress, anxiety, grief and major life changes. She combines warm listening with practical strategies so people can manage panic, low mood and self-esteem struggles. Jane draws on ten years' experience to offer steady support during hard times.
She uses Client-Centred Therapy to make space for each person's story. That means the conversation follows the person, not a rigid checklist.
Background and approach
She also uses elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, offering simple ways to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and routines. Jane has a particular interest in supporting people through grieving, divorce and blended family tensions. She also addresses workplace pressures, women's issues, narcissistic relationships and hospice or end-of-life concerns.
Her focus is on practical coping and clearer decision making rather than labels or paperwork. Her background includes an AQA Level 4 Diploma and a Level 3 Diploma in Adult Social Care. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society.
Jane has worked voluntarily in counselling and built up a range of experience across common mental health concerns. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. The initial step is a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a time that fits the person's needs.
Jane aims to help people feel less overwhelmed and more able to make their own choices.

Approaches Jane lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of thinking and behaving. It is useful for anxiety, panic and low mood because it gives practical tools to test worries and reduce symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jane will discuss different methods and decide together which fits the person's needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative planning helps shape sessions around what the person finds most helpful.
Online therapy by video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging offers flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, shorter conversations or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit counselling around work, family and other commitments.
