About Jane

Jane Lucy works with adults on problems such as depression, anxiety, stress, anger and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing relationship difficulties, grief and bereavement, and those who want to work with past trauma or abuse and its ongoing effects. Jane practises in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration with five years' professional experience.

Her work draws on client-centred therapy. She listens to what matters to each person and helps them make sense of their experience in straightforward ways. Sessions focus on the person's present concerns while also linking these to past events that continue to affect how they think and feel.

Jane also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. This can include attachment or abandonment themes, family of origin issues and patterns that show up in relationships. She explains these patterns simply and works with the person to try different responses in day-to-day life.

Practical discussions often cover coping with panic attacks, managing stress, and improving communication. Jane can also address issues such as eating concerns, guilt and shame, midlife change, men's issues and ageing-related worries. She encourages clear goals and regular review of progress.

Sessions are conducted in English. International clients are not currently accepted. To begin, people use the site's matching route to select a counsellor, complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches work with online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre. The counsellor listens, reflects and helps the person name what matters now, which can help with low self-esteem, stress and relationship issues. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at repeating patterns and how past relationships affect current feelings and behaviour; this can be useful for attachment, abandonment and family of origin concerns.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, needs and preferences with the person and agree together how to proceed, reviewing this as the sessions progress.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to use therapeutic time for practical tasks such as practising communication or trying new ways of coping between sessions. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the approach to suit the rhythms of online work and day-to-day schedules.
