Jane Francis, BACP

Jane Francis practices from a person-centered stance, creating a calm, non-judgemental space where people can explore difficult feelings at their own pace. She brings warmth and careful listening to sessions, helping clients make sense of what they are experiencing and to find clearer ways forward.

Across seven years of professional experience, Jane has supported people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, ADHD, and grief. She offers tailored guidance that aims to help clients understand underlying patterns, work through loss or change, and build practical skills for day-to-day coping. Her approach is collaborative and sensitive, adapting the pace and focus to each person’s needs.

Jane is a registered member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and works within its ethical framework. She also has specialist training in understanding autism, is a Certified ADHD Coach, a menopause ambassador, and practices as a couple’s counsellor. These complementary skills inform her work with individuals and couples who are navigating attachment, communication, motivation, or life-stage concerns.

She aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and to tailor conversations and plans to each client’s unique situation. Jane welcomes the courage it takes to seek change and offers steady support for that journey.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Jane Francis works from a client-centered perspective, which means she follows the client’s lead, offering empathic listening and a respectful space to explore feelings. This approach helps people clarify what matters to them and to build confidence in making changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another focus - it helps people identify and shift painful emotional patterns, which can be especially helpful for relationship difficulties and attachment concerns. Mindfulness Therapy is used to teach practical attention and breathing skills that reduce reactivity and support managing anxiety and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jane will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best suit their needs, goals, and preferences, and may combine elements from different approaches as appropriate.

Online therapy with Jane is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, access support from home, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible. Registered professionals and therapists can adapt exercises and conversations to work effectively in each format.
