Jane Evans , BACP

Jane Evans is a senior BACP-accredited counsellor with 28 years of clinical experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. She has worked across schools, further education and universities, private practice, the voluntary sector, and employee assistance programmes, bringing a broad perspective on how personal difficulties can affect everyday functioning. Over the course of her career she has offered both short-term counselling and longer-term psychotherapy, helping clients who seek support for issues such as stress, anxiety, grief, relationship concerns, addiction, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting and family matters, and a range of neurodiverse and attachment-related needs.

Her practice is informed by an inclusive, non-judgemental, and anti-discriminatory approach, and she frames therapeutic work around developing understanding of feelings and experiences and finding practical ways forward. As a BACP-accredited practitioner - BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a UK professional body - she grounds her work in recognised ethical standards and professional practice. Jane also provides supervision and training online, has contributed to developments in computer-mediated counselling and supervision, and has been recognised for her work in the field of online counselling.

Clients have access to a range of contact mediums she has used in practice, including messaging, webcam and telephone, and Jane draws on multiple therapeutic approaches to tailor support to each person’s needs and goals.

Applying evidence-based approaches to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and then commit to actions that align with their values - it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and emotion, and it can be helpful for relationship difficulties, intimacy issues, and attachment-related distress. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises empathic, non-judgemental listening and supports clients to find their own solutions by exploring personal experience and self-understanding.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Jane works with clients and licensed professionals to identify which methods suit an individual’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts interventions over time as circumstances change.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit support around work, family commitments, or geographical constraints. These options allow therapists and clients to maintain continuity of care, access different modes of communication to suit comfort levels, and make therapy more accessible for people with mobility, caregiving, or scheduling limitations.
