Jane Rodrigues, BACP

Jane Rodrigues is a qualified counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. With four years of clinical experience, she has supported people through anxiety, depression, grief, challenges with self-worth and confidence, and a range of spectrum disorders.

Her particular specialism is working with survivors of abuse, including historical abuse, providing focused support for those navigating trauma and its effects. Jane practices an integrative style, drawing on different evidence-informed methods to suit each person she works with. She commonly uses person-centred and solution-focused techniques to tailor sessions to individual needs, pacing work according to what feels most helpful for each client.

In addition to counselling, Jane is trained as a life coach and brings that practical, goal-oriented perspective into work when appropriate. She aims to offer a non-judgemental, empathic and respectful space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings and build coping skills. Jane frames therapy as a collaborative process and describes it as a privilege to accompany people on their journeys of self-care, growth and discovery.

Evidence-based Approaches and Online Support

Jane commonly uses person-centred and solution-focused techniques as part of an integrative, evidence-informed practice. Person-centred work emphasises empathy, active listening and the client’s own resources, helping people explore feelings and build self-worth. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on identifying practical goals and small, achievable steps forward, which can be useful for stress, anxiety and confidence issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jane collaborates with each client to determine what methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts sessions over time, combining approaches where appropriate so the work remains responsive and practical.

Online therapy with Jane is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, allowing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These remote options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access support from familiar surroundings, while still engaging in meaningful, goal-focused therapeutic work with a registered professional.
