About Jane
Jane Sheppard is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She helps people who struggle with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and career concerns. Her work also addresses codependency and related issues such as attachment worries, abandonment and communication problems.
She uses practical conversation to help people notice unhelpful patterns in relationships. Sessions look at how past attachment experiences affect current choices. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify thinking habits that increase anxiety or self-doubt.
Jane draws on solution-focused ideas to set clear, manageable goals. For people affected by trauma she integrates trauma-informed strategies to support stabilisation and gradual processing. The emphasis is on doable steps rather than long lists of theory.
Her approach is client-centred, so sessions are led by what each person brings. Jane listens for recurring themes and offers straightforward tools to try between meetings. She explains approaches in plain language and reviews progress as therapy continues.
Sessions are conducted in English and she does not work with international clients. Fees vary by location and are charged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the online therapy options button.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. In simple terms this approach helps people notice how they behave in close relationships and practise different responses. It can be useful for worries about codependency, abandonment and trust.Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers concrete techniques to test unhelpful beliefs and try new habits. This can reduce anxiety and help rebuild confidence in everyday situations.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable. Together they decide which methods to use and review progress as sessions continue.
Confirm current session options before booking because the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find it simpler to maintain continuity of care when sessions can be scheduled around work or family commitments.
