Jane Little , BACP

Jane Little transitioned from a senior management career to professional counselling after deciding she wanted to do more than workplace coaching and mentoring. She trained as a counsellor and over the last 13 years has supported adults of all ages and genders, including college students, through a wide range of concerns. Her practice has included extensive work with people affected by domestic abuse, addressing both physical and emotional trauma and the broad effects these experiences can have on mental health. Jane is also a qualified clinical supervisor, providing guidance to counsellors and other professionals in their clinical work.

Her approach is grounded in helping clients make sense of their experiences and develop greater self-understanding. She works collaboratively to explore how past and present patterns affect feelings, thoughts, and behaviours, and supports clients in experimenting with alternative ways of thinking and relating. Jane values each person’s uniqueness and recognises the courage involved in seeking help. She takes a gentle, supportive stance designed to help clients get the most from their sessions, with a focus on practical change and emotional insight.

Jane is accredited by the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her commitment to professional standards and ongoing development. Her broad experience covers areas such as stress, anxiety, relationships, family issues, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, LGBT matters, grief, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting, anger, self-esteem, career challenges, bipolar management, coping with life changes, coaching, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Jane draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and emotion. This approach helps people who struggle with attachment issues, intimacy, trust, and relationship conflicts by identifying relational patterns and working to build more secure ways of relating.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes a warm, non-judgemental therapeutic relationship where the client’s experience is heard and respected. This approach is useful for people seeking greater self-understanding, emotional processing, or a safe space to navigate life transitions.

When helpful, Jane uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and to develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, low mood, stress, or addictive patterns. CBT offers structured ways to test new thinking and adopt more effective coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jane works with clients and licensed professionals to tailor methods to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus as therapy progresses so the work stays relevant and practical.

Online sessions can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for those balancing work, family, or mobility needs. These options make it easier to access regular support from home or elsewhere, helping clients maintain continuity of care and fit therapy into busy lives.
