About Jayne
Jayne Lewis is a counsellor with four years of experience and an NCPS credential. She works with people facing a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD and concerns linked to identity such as LGBT matters. Her style is warm and person-centred, with an emphasis on helping people feel heard and understood from the first session.
Jayne begins from a person-centred base to build trust and learn what matters to each person.
Background and approach
From there she may bring in cognitive behavioural techniques or elements from other approaches to suit the individual. She also uses relaxation work and may include meditation as part of a plan if it fits the client’s needs.
Her background includes long-term professional and voluntary work which has shaped a practical view of how everyday stresses and past trauma can affect current life. She describes therapy as a partnership where clients choose the pace and focus of sessions, and she aims to support and empower people as they make changes.
Jayne mentions hypnotherapy and psychodynamic activities among the methods she can use alongside counselling. She highlights self-care and relaxation as practical tools to relieve pressure, and will discuss what techniques to try during sessions. She is willing to work with clients across time zones and notes she can often be flexible on scheduling.
Prospective clients are encouraged to use the site process to begin and to ask about times if none seem to fit. Background and approach: Jayne emphasises meeting the person first and tailoring the plan after understanding their needs. She draws on a mix of client-centred conversation, cognitive behavioural work and other supportive techniques.
The aim is to reduce overwhelm, build coping skills and explore patterns that may come from past experiences. Practical self-care, relaxation and agreed exercises are used between sessions when helpful.

How Jayne’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in early relationships and how they affect current connections, which can help with relationship stress and feelings of isolation. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding first, giving space for clients to explore what matters at their own pace and often forming the basis for other techniques.Choosing the right approach is usually a collaborative process. Jayne will listen to your concerns, discuss possible methods, and help decide what feels most useful. This means you can try one way of working and change direction if it isn’t helping you achieve your goals.
The biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm the available online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow quicker check-ins during a lunch break, or avoid the need to be on camera for some conversations. Therapists and registered or accredited professionals tailor sessions to the goals you set together, and online work can include talking, guided exercises and relaxation practices adapted for remote sessions.
