About Jane
Jane Stannard is a counsellor with BACP and NCPS registration and ten years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. Jane also addresses workplace pressures, women's issues, panic attacks and relationship breakdowns including divorce and blended family challenges.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centred ways of working. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and trying different responses. Conversations are practical and grounded, aimed at easing daily stress and helping people make clearer choices.
Many people come because they are grieving a death, a relationship, a job or another loss. Jane listens to personal stories and helps people find some order after a major change. She can offer faith-sensitive support for clients who want Christian perspectives and prayer as part of counselling.
Her route to practice included an AQA Level 4 Diploma and a Level 3 Diploma in Adult Social Care. She has volunteered in counselling roles and has worked with a range of concerns including abuse and financial stress. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and of the NCPS.
Jane has training recognised by the Association for Counselling and Therapy Online and experience working by telephone and online. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and practical details. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.
To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to see if the working relationship feels suitable.
How CBT and client-centred work translate to online sessions
Jane uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thought patterns that increase stress and anxiety. CBT sessions focus on practical tools and short experiments to change how someone reacts to worry, panic or low mood.She also uses client-centred approaches that prioritise listening and reflecting what someone says. That method helps people feel heard and organise their thoughts before moving on to more active techniques like CBT.
Deciding which approach to use is a joint process. The therapist discusses goals, preferences and what feels helpful, and then adapts the mix of listening and active skills work. Clients shape the plan and can try different ways of working as needed.
The profile records training for online and telephone work. Readers should confirm the exact session formats available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a workday, reduce travel time and allow a quieter check-in when needed. Telephone sessions may suit shorter check-ins or times of lower bandwidth, while online video can allow more visual interaction. Registered or accredited professionals can work effectively this way when the approach and practical arrangements suit the client.
