About Jane
Jane Nicholls is a counsellor who aims to make talking about hard things easier. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to voice worries about relationships, stress, depression or big life changes. Jane works in English and practises from the United Kingdom.
She is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Jane takes an individual approach in sessions. She listens first and then adapts methods to suit each person’s needs.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical ways to manage anxiety, sleep and eating difficulties, addiction concerns, grief and self-esteem struggles. She also supports people dealing with intimacy issues, anger and career decisions. Her practice pays attention to how early attachment and past trauma affect current relationships.
Jane uses ideas from Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, combined with client-centred listening and trauma-focused work when appropriate. This mix helps people understand patterns and try different ways of responding. People meet Jane for a range of concerns, including divorce and separation, domestic violence, dissociation, compassion fatigue, first responder issues, and feelings of isolation or jealousy.
She also offers space to address abandonment, control issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame. Jane has four years of counselling experience. She describes her style as warm and practical, helping people to name what is happening and to take manageable steps forward.
If someone prefers online contact, she offers video, phone, live chat and text-based messaging. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability. Sessions are provided via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Jane uses therapeutic approaches online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections. Online work uses this approach to help people see patterns in their close relationships and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and change unhelpful habits.Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. Jane listens to each person's story, identifies what feels most urgent and then suggests options. Together they agree on goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences, adjusting the plan as they go.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual contact helps. Phone sessions can be a better fit when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short updates, reflective work between sessions or people who prefer typing rather than speaking. These formats help fit therapy around work, family life and varying routines.
