About Jane
Jane Nicholls offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by relationships, stress or major life changes. She is a counsellor who aims to make the first step feel manageable and practical. Jane works in a way that puts the person’s concerns first and treats each situation as unique.
Jane uses a mix of approaches chosen to suit each person. Sessions focus on talking through what is happening now and on small, doable steps people can take between meetings.
How Jane works
She helps people notice patterns in relationships, cope with anxiety and low mood, and work through issues linked to trauma or addiction. With four years of experience and registration with the BACP, Jane blends talking therapies to match what each person needs. She explains methods simply and checks in about what is helping.
This makes it easier to build trust and keep therapy practical. People often come to Jane for help with grief, parenting strain, career stress, sleep or eating concerns, and feelings of shame or isolation. She also supports those navigating separation, communication problems and attachment issues.
Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and make choices clearer. Jane offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging for flexible access. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and choose a time that fits.
The focus is on steady progress and finding what works for each person.

How Jane’s online approaches can help
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape present relationships. Jane uses it to help people understand patterns like fear of abandonment or difficulty trusting others and to build more supported ways of relating.Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. Jane listens without judgement, follows the person's lead and offers reflections that help clarify feelings and choices. This approach suits people who need space to make sense of their experience.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. Jane uses simple CBT techniques to tackle anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits by testing thoughts and trying small behavioural changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jane will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they check what helps and adapt the approach as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need ongoing, low-key contact between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on progress.
