About Jane

Jane Kelly is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns, including codependency and issues around family and parenting. She speaks English and uses a client-led way of working that centres the person's own experience.

Jane uses a client-centred approach that lets the individual set the pace and topics for sessions. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in close relationships. Mindfulness and narrative tools are used to help people notice their thoughts and tell the stories that shape them.

Sessions focus on practical steps and on understanding how familiar patterns can keep repeating. Jane often helps people identify where they put others first and how that affects wellbeing. She works with people coping with life changes, grief, career strain, long-term health issues and the stresses of caregiving.

Her way of working is conversational and straightforward. People are invited to reflect on past and present relationships and try small experiments between sessions. The emphasis is on clearer communication, boundary-setting and increased self-awareness rather than labels or quick fixes.

For someone who feels stuck by people-pleasing or overwhelmed by another person's moods or needs, Jane offers a calm space to talk things through. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session using the online options provided.

How sessions work

How Jane’s approaches translate to online sessions

Jane uses client-centred work and attachment-based ideas to focus on what matters to the person sitting in front of her. Client-centred therapy means sessions are guided by the client's priorities and pace; it is useful for people who need a space to talk through stress, low mood or relationship strain. Attachment-based work looks at recurring patterns in close relationships and can help when someone keeps repeating the same painful dynamics.

She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help clients notice how thoughts and feelings show up in the body. That approach is practical when coping with anxiety, grief or anger, and it can be used alongside talking approaches to build calmer responses over time. Together these methods are explored collaboratively, with the client and counsellor deciding which fits best for the issues presented.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jane will help identify which methods suit the client's goals and preferences, and she adjusts the focus as those goals change. This is a collaborative process that involves reviewing what helps and trying different ways of working.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel, or allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often offer flexible arrangements to fit therapy around everyday life.
