Jane Evans
Experienced counsellor for complex life issues
About Jane
Jane Evans helps people handle stress, anxiety, grief, depression and relationship worries. She supports those facing trauma, addiction, eating and sleeping problems, parenting and career strain, and challenges linked to identity, intimacy or ADHD. She works with people who are coping with major life changes and complex histories such as abandonment, adoption, chronic illness and attachment issues.
Evans has worked in mental health since 1995 across schools, universities, independent practice, the voluntary sector and employee assistance programmes.
Background and approach
She offers both short-term counselling and longer-term therapy, tailoring the length to what a person needs. Her practice is shaped by a non-judgemental, inclusive stance that aims to help people feel heard and respected. She uses several therapeutic approaches and adapts them to each person.
Sessions focus on making sense of feelings and patterns, developing practical skills for daily life, and finding steps forward that feel manageable. Her way of working is collaborative and paced to the person’s comfort. Evans is a BACP counsellor, and she draws on many years of experience supporting a wide range of concerns.
She also works as a supervisor, trainer and consultant on online counselling services. That background informs how she runs online sessions and how she supports other counsellors. People who choose her can pick from video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging.
She aims to help people understand themselves better and to find realistic ways to move towards clearer, more hopeful days.

Therapeutic approaches and online working
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based action. It supports those who feel stuck by teaching simple skills to shift attention and commit to small, meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and introduces practical exercises to change patterns that cause distress. It is often used for anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy considers how early relationships shape current patterns and feelings, and it can help people understand relationship difficulties and attachment issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and together they will choose methods that match the person’s goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative process means approaches can be combined or adapted as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls are close to face-to-face interaction, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit shorter check-ins and text messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while still using the chosen therapeutic approaches.
