About Jane
Jane Evans is a counsellor with many years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship worries and parenting challenges. She is based in the United Kingdom and works with a wide range of concerns including addiction, trauma, intimacy issues, sleeping and eating difficulties, and career or life transitions. Jane holds BACP accreditation, which she keeps central to her practice.
She has worked in schools, further education, universities, employee assistance programmes, the voluntary sector and independent practice.
Background and approach
That background means she is used to short-term and longer-term work. Sessions can be delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging according to what suits each person. In sessions she focuses on building a trusting, non-judgemental relationship.
Her style is warm and straightforward, helping people make sense of their feelings and find practical ways forward. She draws on approaches such as acceptance and commitment therapy, attachment-based methods and cognitive behavioural techniques when these fit the situation. Over nearly three decades Jane has also provided supervision, training and consultancy around online counselling.
She has been involved in developing e-counselling practice and has supported services piloting remote counselling and training programmes. People who choose her can expect to discuss the medium of counselling as well as their goals. That helps make sure sessions are arranged in a way that works for daily life and for the specific issues being addressed.

How therapeutic approaches fit with online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on what matters most and on small committed actions that move a person towards those values, which can help with anxiety, depression and parenting stress.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how earlier relationships shape current patterns with others. It helps people understand emotional responses and build more supported ways of relating, which is useful for intimacy issues, relationship strain and some forms of trauma.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, needs and preferences and then agree what to try first. That collaborative planning makes sure therapy fits the problem and daily life, and can be reviewed as things change.
Online counselling offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let you use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work well for shorter check-ins or for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, care responsibilities and other commitments while drawing on the same therapeutic methods used in face-to-face work.
