Jane High, NCPS

Jane High works from a person-centred approach that keeps the relationship at the heart of therapy. She draws on client-centred, attachment-based and mindfulness methods to help people manage stress, anxiety and the effects of trauma. Jane uses practical steps alongside conversation to build confidence and coping skills.

She has four years of professional experience and holds NCPS. Jane adapts sessions to each person’s needs and helps set goals together. She aims for simple, realistic strategies people can use between meetings.

Common concerns she supports include grief and loss, low self-esteem, life changes and workplace strain. She also focuses on attachment issues, body image, chronic pain and long-term illness, and recovery from post-traumatic stress. Sessions often address guilt, shame, isolation and communication problems.

Jane incorporates Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas when useful to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. She may use elements of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and mindfulness practices where appropriate to the person’s situation. Her approach is flexible and practical rather than rigidly technique-driven.

People who choose Jane can expect a respectful and sensitive working relationship. She encourages collaboration on goals and keeps language plain and direct. The emphasis is on small, achievable changes that add up over time.

How her approaches translate to online work

Jane draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how past relationships shape current feelings and reactions, which can help when stress, grief or low self-worth are central concerns. Client-centred work puts the person and their priorities first, so sessions focus on listening, reflecting and setting goals together. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try simple practical changes to feelings and behaviour.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jane will discuss ways of working with each person and decide together which methods feel most helpful for the issues and goals they bring. The therapist adapts techniques to match preferences and what is realistic for someone’s life.

The practical benefits of online therapy include better ability to fit sessions around work, family and daily routines, and fewer travel commitments. If you are considering remote sessions, please confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as options are not specified here. Many people find online meetings make it easier to keep regular contact and apply what they learn between appointments.
