How Jane works

Online support options
How Jane’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, depression and coping with life changes because it teaches practical ways to move toward what matters.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches clear strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep issues and impulsivity with simple exercises you can practise between sessions.
Finding the right method is part of therapy. Jane works together with each person to decide which approach or mix of approaches fits their goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps tailor the work to real life demands and personal strengths.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful for full conversation and teaching strategies, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, chat fits short check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and daily routines while keeping the focus on practical steps and progress.
