Jane Little, BACP

Jane Little made a career change from senior management into counselling. She trained to become a counsellor after years of coaching and mentoring in the workplace. She has 13 years of clinical experience and works with adults across a wide range of concerns. Jane holds BACP registration, which reflects her professional membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Jane has worked extensively with people affected by domestic abuse and trauma, including the physical and emotional consequences. She also supports clients dealing with anxiety, depression, addiction, grief and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Recent practice includes work with college students and providing clinical supervision to other counsellors and professionals.

Her style is gentle and supportive. She helps people understand how past experiences shape present feelings and behaviour. Sessions focus on making sense of difficult events and trying different ways of thinking and acting.

Jane draws on approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centred conversation, cognitive behavioural techniques, emotionally focussed methods and mindfulness. She explains ideas plainly and helps clients practise strategies that fit their daily life. The emphasis is on collaboration and steady progress.

People who appreciate a thoughtful, compassionate listener often find her approach helpful. She pays attention to each person’s uniqueness and the practical steps they can take between sessions. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

Approaches that translate to online counselling

Attachment-based work helps people notice patterns in close relationships and understand how early bonds shape feelings now; it can be useful for relationship struggles and attachment issues. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client, creating a calm space to talk through concerns such as anxiety, grief or self-esteem. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which many people find helpful for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and choose methods that feel like a good fit. That collaborative decision can be reviewed as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to work on practical exercises and mindfulness between sessions while staying connected with a registered or accredited professional.
