Jane NichollsBACP

Jane Nicholls is a counsellor who helps people navigate relationship and pregnancy-related concerns alongside a wide range of life stresses. She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through what feels difficult and begin to make sense of their experiences. Jane holds BACP accreditation, which she keeps visible as part of her professional identity.

Jane works in a straightforward, person-centred way. She adapts her approach to what each person needs rather than relying on a single method. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer communication, and coping strategies that fit day-to-day life.

Her background includes four years of practice addressing depression, anxiety, grief, stress and trauma. She also supports people dealing with intimacy issues, addiction patterns, sleep and eating concerns, and problems linked to work or caregiving strain. Jane pays attention to attachment, abandonment and control issues where these come up in conversation.

In sessions she draws on client-centred principles alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and trauma-focused work when appropriate. That means she listens first, helps people identify patterns, and then practises ways to change unhelpful routines or thoughts. The overall aim is to help people feel steadier and more able to cope with change.

People who contact Jane are invited to take things at their own pace. She encourages questions about what therapy will involve and works together with each person to set realistic goals. Contact details and next steps are provided through the site when someone chooses to begin.

How her approaches shape online counselling

Jane draws from attachment-based and trauma-focused approaches to help people understand how past relationships and stressful events shape current feelings and behaviour. Attachment-based work looks at how patterns from early connections show up now, which can help with relationship and intimacy worries. Trauma-focused therapy helps people process distressing memories and reduce their ongoing emotional impact, often using paced, structured conversations.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Jane listens to what matters most to the person and discusses options together, so the plan reflects their goals and what feels manageable. She adapts methods over time when something is not helping, and checks in about progress and comfort throughout therapy.

Session options are not listed in the original biography, so please confirm current online formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around family life, appointments and work commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce travel time and make regular contact simpler for people juggling many responsibilities.
